About Ryan
Music that moves people.
You’ve probably heard cello music before — but not like this. I’m Ryan, a cellist creating a full spectrum of live music for events across New Mexico.
My goal isn’t to impress. It’s to move. If you’ve ever felt something shift during a live performance and couldn’t explain why — that’s what I’m offering.
“I found your music and couldn’t stop listening." That’s how most people find me. They feel it first. Then they book.

"Ryan Smith is an incredibly talented cellist who has made two of our most special occasions truly unforgettable.
His music is simply stunning—so full of feeling that it will bring you to tears. Whether performing for a large event or a more intimate gathering, Ryan’s artistry, professionalism, and genuine passion shine through. I can’t recommend him highly enough!."
What I Offer
Cello that connects. More than solo.
I play with custom recordings I've created, so the sound is layered with different instruments. The sound is full, and it varies from song to song. Live cello melodies bring cohesion.
Often compared to the music of Bridgerton, people will notice the quality – but it doesn't demand any attention.
Using a cello and a sound system, I make every event feel truly special. That's my passion.
Music for people. All people.
There's no template here!
Just sound with soul, played by someone kind, patient, and deeply present.
