Ryan Newcomb is a singer/songwriter and worship leader from Winston-Salem, NC where he lives with his wife, Mary, and their boys, Elijah and Samuel.
Born on Christmas Day in 1981, music has always been at the center of Ryan Newcomb’s life. He started singing in his church when he was only 6 years old. On his 14th birthday, Ryan’s parents caved in and bought their son his very first guitar. What was born was the accompaniment to his voice that Ryan had always sought. From the moment he began to play the guitar, he seemingly began to write. “I always had a place in my heart that wanted to play. It turned out that this place in my heart was actually a desire to write.”
Fueled by influences such as John Denver, James Taylor, Paul Simon, Jim Croce, Caedmon’s Call, Andrew Peterson and countless other singer/songwriters, Ryan seeks to tell the story of his own life in hopes that it tells the story of the Gospel.
In 2021, Ryan released his first new music in over a decade with Home and Family Man, a total of 13 new original songs recorded with some of the finest musicians from the Winston-Salem, NC community.
“Ryan Newcomb is a wonderful songwriter. His music is honest and beautiful -- his songs stir the heart and remind you that you are alive.” -Jeremy Casella
