Ryan Lindsey talks Dfest, the coveted No. 6, songwriting, greasecars and more



Editor's Note: In a nutshell, Ryan Lindsey, a Norman resident born in Stillwater, has put in his dues, playing with local bands Cheyenne and the Starlight Mints. Lindsey recently signed a publishing deal with Bug Music.

July 15, he had two major releases on the same day. First, he had two songs come out on the Columbia Records soundtrack to the documentary film "American Teen" -- an instrumental mix of Summertime from his self-produced album "White Paper Beds" (look for a review of that in next week's pop!) and an exclusive track he wrote for the film, "Let's Go Out." Second, Starbucks Entertainment will release "Have You Heard," a compilation of music from new and emerging artists that includes Ryan's new track "Put Your Trust in Ross."

Paramount Vantage will release "American Teen" on July 25, the same weekend Ryan is playing DFest in Tulsa. So (whew!), he's been busy. Fortunately, Lindsey had a few minutes to talk with pop recently.

Entertainment Editor

pop: How did the Opolis gig go July 12?

Ryan Lindsey: It went pretty well. I've played kind of a one-man show for a long time and a couple months ago I opened for a band and they backed me up.

This show was actually a different band so it was fun to go from no band to a band to a different band.

So it's kind of a whole new experience for me. It was fun to change things up.

p: Would you care to say a few words on "American Teen?"

RL: I found out about it ... when I met the music supervisor on the film, Chris Douridas.

He works at KCRW in L.A. and he said that he has this film that he's working on, "American Teen," and asked me if I wanted to watch it and possibly write some songs for it.
