Музыка
A conversation and music with Jim Masters and Ryan Kelly of Celtic Thunder and Byrne and Kelly, singer, songwriter, musician as Ryan chats with award-winning television, radio, multimedia personality, presenter and host Jim Masters on The Jim Masters Show LIVE! entertainment, lifestyle, talk show series.
A candid, inspiring, fun conversation between two friends as Ryan joins Jim direct from is home in Ireland Ryan is a current member of the Irish band Celtic Thunder, but he maintains his early musical background a solo singer. His first solo album, released in 2010 is called In Time; his second, Life, was released in 2013. With fellow Celtic Thunder singer and band member Neil Byrne. Ryan comes from The Moy in Co. Tyrone in Northern Ireland. Although he studied accountancy at Queens University, Belfast and is a qualified Chartered Accountant by trade, music and theater have always been Ryan’s true passion. He first began singing in public at the age of seven and has won many accolades and awards for his performances, including SCOR 2007, a national Irish Singing Competition and the BBC’s “Country Cool” competition in 2003. In his solo career, Ryan has released two World Billboard chart-topping self-penned solo albums, “In Time” in October 2011 and “Life” in December 2013 to great critical acclaim and has won several Irish Music Awards - including “Top Solo Performer in a Concert” in 2011 and 2014. Ryan’s love of musical theatre has led him to perform the lead role of Mickey in the Willie Russell musical “Blood Brothers” and the role of Judas Iscariot in “Jesus Christ Superstar”.
Ryan is a fanatical sports fan and has played Gaelic football and basketball at national level. When he’s not on the road, Ryan can still be found training with his local GAA football club and playing basketball as often as possible. He is also an avid runner, he spends his mornings on tour running through different cities and has completed several 10Ks and half marathons. Regardless of whether he is out on the road touring, or at home in The Moy, Ryan can usually be found catching up on his favorite sports on television and online. He is a lifelong supporter of the Boston Celtics. He mentions the opportunity to stand alongside his Celtic Thunder cast mates in TD Garden in Boston and sing the US National Anthem at the opening of a Celtics game as one of the highlights of his Celtic Thunder journey so far. One of the original members of Celtic Thunder, Ryan was between banking jobs when his brother told him about the audition for “an Irish touring band of America”.
Celtic Thunder Producer Sharon Browne was looking for someone who could “sing like they had a mean streak” and when Ryan sang as Judas Iscariot from Jesus Christ Superstar, it all came together. Ryan’s love for drama made him the perfect pick for the role of the “rogue” or “Dark Destroyer” in Celtic Thunder Shows. Celtic Thunder fans enthusiasm for his performances ensure that he enjoys every moment onstage - “It’s clichéd, but music is my life. It’s what makes me happy and I feel blessed to be able to call this my job.” Ryan has toured the US, Canada and Australia with Celtic Thunder since 2008. 2016 saw is his fourth tour “Down Under” with Celtic Thunder and also toured the country twice with Neil Byrne with their acoustic “Byrne and Kelly” shows. He notes that Australia will always have a special meaning for him as his aunt and uncle emigrated to Newcastle, New South Wales over fifty years ago and made Australia their home ever since. “It’s great to be able to come out here and sing songs that I’ve grown up singing from home to a lot of people who have strong connections to Ireland and its culture - including my own family.” #celticthunder #ryankelly #byrneandkelly #thejimmastersshow #jimmasterstv #thejimmastersshowlive Ryan Kelly Celtic Thunder, Ryan Kelly interview

I know that I’m late to this video but Jim all I can say is I’m a huge fan of Ryan and of course Celtic Thunder. I have read that Ryan tested positive for COVID-19 and hear that he is doing better now. Please tell him that one of his fan from Tolland Connecticut is so glad that he’s doing better. Ryan do you know if Celtic Thunder will be going on tour for 2021. Again Jim thank you for posting this video. I’ll also say that I would love to meet Ryan and he’s like you said incredibly talented. Jim I have a question what was the name of the book that Ryan wrote.
