  • POP In with Ryan Breen
    Sep 4 2024

    A group of strangers belting out “so good” in Sweet Caroline. Friends reminiscing about a song from their high school years. That special look a couple shares when their wedding song plays unexpectedly. The amazing feeling when a song perfectly encapsulates the complexities and nuances of everything you’re feeling. Music has the ability to transform, transport, and transfix us… but what inspires someone to write a song?


    In our latest episode, Cristina sits down with Ryan Breen to talk about his experience as a musician – everything from composing the instrumentals to finding the right lyric. Tune in to hear Ryan discuss music’s powerful ability to heal and the cathartic process of writing.
