“I have used Ryland as a worship leader in two very different settings (one for youth leaders and another for a children’s event) and he excelled at both. He is very gifted, enjoys people, loves the Lord, and is exceptionally easy to work with as a ministry partner in your event. I would recommend Ryland to any church or organization seeking quality leadership for a wonderful worship experience."

Leighton Flowers
BGCT Youth Evangelism Director

"Ryland and his band connected with the students both on and off the stage at Super Summer. Worship is obviously his passion and his God-given gift. He uses this gift with humility and professionalism. I highly recommend Ryland to anyone looking for a top quality worship leader."

Steve Brazzel
Director of ETC Student Camp

"Ryland led a fantastic week of worship at our camp. He humbly led students and adults to worship the Lord and kept the focus on the Savior. He is great to work with and a pleasure to be around for the week. We would be happy to have Ryland back at our camp in the future."

Tracy Hill
Director of Camp WOW

"We were so blessed to have Ryland Russell Band lead our worship services at Camp WOW this summer. They do a wonderful job of leading the crowd into a powerful time of praise and worship. Their love for Jesus is clearly seen on stage and off. To quote my daughter, she said, "if that song didn't move you, then something is wrong with you!" We heard wonderful feedback from youth and church leaders alike of how much they enjoyed their worship experiences, everyone really responded to worship with Ryland Russell Band leading the way! God sent us just who we needed!"

Jeff Martin
Founder -Fields of Faith Ministries

"The Ryland Russell Band has a special way of bringing people into the presence of God. They are exceptionally gifted musicians and their sound is unbelievable! I've dealt with a lot of Christian artists over the past 20 years, and you can tell a lot about a band by how they act off the stage. Ryland is not about performance, he is about service. He isn't marked by pride, but by humility. That is why I will continue to join with him in our ministry for years to come."

Tommy Haines
Lead Pastor of RealChurch.tv

The Ryland Russell Band is a fun group of guys who have a heart for the Lord and for worship. If you want someone to not only lead your group in worship but connect and love your people they would be a great choice. Ryland has a contemporary relevant rock sound that can reach multiple groups. I highly recommend him to you.

Keith Haygood

We invited Ryland to lead worship for our student musical festival in Bricktown OKC and were very pleased with his music and leadership. This group has a heart for leading people to the throne of grace in worship and I would highly recommend them.

Ryan Smith
Youth Pastor Eagle Heights Stillwater, OK

“I decided to have Ryland Russell lead our students in worship at a discipleship weekend after hearing their CD. The Ryland Russell Band is by far one of the best worship bands I have ever worked with. Their musicianship has a committed excellence and their worship is engaging and obviously spirit-led. I would HIGHLY recommend Ryland Russell for any and all events your group may be having. One of the easiest, kindest, and Christ-like bands we’ve ever had.”

The Ryland Russell Band did a great job in being "lead worshippers" for our students. Their hearts were genuine, and music quality was great! Thanks guys!
