About Ryan Dillaha:
A Michigan native, Dillaha once worked at a steel mill before pursuing his musicianship. To let off the 9 to 5 steam, he played in bands on the weekends and developed the energetic and magnetic stage presence the downriver community has come to love. On top of his music education — a mix of country, Motown, and classic rock — Dillaha studied literature at Wayne State University and now teaches at Oakland Community College. He’s a staple in the downriver community, with a swagger that matches his musical influences and a lyrical style that rivals his favorite poets.
