Ryan Shaw

Soul singer Ryan Shaw is preparing a follow-up to his debut album This is Ryan Shaw released back in 2007, due this spring. Titled Real Love, the new album includes 12 tracks of which he recently unveiled the lead single called Karina. The soulful track is telling the story of a man who badly wants back the woman who left him: "I'm tossing in my sleep and I'm calling out your name" Ryan sings. Take a listen to Ryan's new single below:

Ryan started singing at his Pentecostal Church in Decatur, GA at the age of three, where he and his siblings thrilled the parishioners with Staple Singers harmonies. Shaw later moved to New York and emerged as one of soul music's most exciting new artists with a string of victories at Amateur Night at the Apollo Theatre and as part of the cast of Tyler Perry's Broadway play 'I Know I've Been Changed.'
