The Pal’s talk to Ryan Shepherd about his big break, his upcoming album, Shep Talks, Hello Sunday, and some of his favourite shows and festivals.

Known for his popular tracks and high energy live sets, Toronto based Producer/DJ Ryan Shepherd continues to prove himself as one of the top new artists in dance music.   

His first major hit titled, 'Fill Me In", in collaboration with fellow Canadian artists, Loud Luxury, reached #1 on the Spotify Global Viral charts and now has over 50 millions  streams worldwide. Since this major release, he has continued his momentum by  putting out a number of singles and remixes on major dance music labels all over the world. So far in 2020, he has released 2 new singles and a remix on   Armin van Buuren’s powerhouse label Armada with his latest release titled ‘What The Hell Am I (Drinking In LA)’. The track was inspired by Bran Vab 3000's 90’s classic ‘Drinking In LA’.

Ryan has also secured an international presence by playing shows and festivals all over the world. Some of the most memorable, however, have been on home soil where he has played the Main Stage at two of Canada's largest electronic dance festivals - Dreams Music Festival and Escapade Music Festival - in 2017, 2018, & 2019. He joined  Loud Luxury on their ‘Nights Like This’ North American Tour as well as played multiple events throughout ADE 2019 in Amsterdam.  

With all of his success combined with his work ethic and undeniable passion for music, there is no denying that Ryan is on the rise to be among the biggest names in dance music. Keep an eye out for lots of more new music in 2020 as well as plenty more tour dates and festival appearances across North America & Europe.
