Ryan Amon is an American composer born in Elkhorn, Wisconsin, where he began composing music at an early age with a
background in classical piano. He is an alumnus of the McNally Smith College of Music in St. Paul, Minnesota, where his
academic focus featured songwriting, film composition, and motion imaging. After receiving the Pete Carpenter Fellowship from
BMI in 2003, where he studied briefly under composer Mike Post, Ryan moved to Los Angeles. His path would later take him
over 5,000 miles away to the edge of the eastern Amazon basin of Bolivia, where his wife Carla’s family resides. It was while
living in Santa Cruz, Bolivia that he was first inspired to form his own personal music project which later became the motion
picture advertising company ‘City of the Fallen’ in 2009. His music and source of creativity is profoundly influenced by his faith
in Jesus Christ. A prolific composer of the traditional orchestra, he is also constantly experimenting with the limitless
combinations of the non-traditional sonic palette, ranging from the organic natural world to electronic synthesis and everything
in between. His travels to Central and South America, Africa and Asia have cemented his fascination and love of world cultures,
which at times find themselves weaved into the fabric of his music.
