Ryan Jewell

Columbus, OH

Ryan Jewell is a musician, multi-instrumentalist, composer, educator, and improvisor that is primarily known as a drummer/ percussionist. Often characterized by his sense of groove and creative approach, he is equally at home with a wide variety of artists, creating subtle heartbeat pulses behind acoustic singer songwriters, playing multi-directional advanced polyrhythms with jazz improvisors, finessing extended techniques for electroacoustic experimental music, and settling into a deep or driving backbeat pocket with rock, pop, blues, soul and r&b artists.
