Acclaimed rock artist Ryan Star has premiered new song "F*ck'n Up" off his Animals EP out August 5th. The moody, coming-of-age track is streaming now on ArtistDirect.com - PRESS HERE<http://www.artistdirect.com/entertainment-news/article/ryan-star-teams-up-with-artistdirect-com-to-debut-f-ck-n-up-song/10662779> to check it out.

Billboard.com recently premiered lead single "Impossible" - PRESS HERE<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPVJlTWz2gg&feature=youtu.be> to listen. The 5-song EP, which was executive produced by Ryan, is available for pre-order now on iTunes - PRESS HERE<https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/animals-ep/id677958252>.  After taking the music world by storm during the last three years and signing to Island Def Jam in 2012, Ryan is reclaiming his art and choosing to self-release his new EP. Recorded entirely analog with his touring band, many times in just one incredible take, Animals is an intimate EP with a cinematic flare and boasts the kind of understated yet moving power that only R. Star can deliver.



Ryan has had his music featured prominently in more than 50 films and TV shows, including P.S. I Love You, The Vampire Diaries and the opening theme song to Lie To Me. Given his live prowess, he's been tapped to open for many of today's chart-topping artists and has even shared the stage with childhood idol and friend Steven Van Zandt. His 2010 full-length major label debut, 11:59, landed at #10 on Billboard's Rock Albums Chart and #4 on the Tastemakers Chart. Then, his 2012 hit "Stay Awhile" lit up airwaves and quickly amassed over 2 million YouTube views, earning him a performance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.



Ryan, who is known for his raw and electric shows, will perform special EP release shows in New York City August 6 at Joe's Pub, August 7 at Rockwood Music Hall, August 8 at Piano's and August 9 at  Mercury Lounge. He is revisiting the stages where it all began for him with up-close-and-personal shows. Be sure to catch him live!
