Ryan Bingham is a Grammy and Academy Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician known for his cinematic storytelling and genre-spanning sound, blending folk, blues, country, rock, and mariachi. Since emerging with his acclaimed 2007 debut Mescalito, Bingham has built a reputation for deeply lived-in songs and commanding live performances.
His highly anticipated seventh studio album, They Call Us the Lucky Ones, marks his first full-length release in seven years and showcases the synergy between Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen, capturing a raw, live energy with minimal overdubs. Featuring everything from snarling rockers to tender ballads, the album draws on his experiences on the road, the highs and lows of a musician’s life, and a newfound sense of joy and hope. With his signature rasp and vivid character-driven lyrics, Bingham continues to stand as one of the most authentic and compelling voices in American music. In addition to his award-winning music career, Bingham appeared on Paramount’s hit series Yellowstone for five seasons and launched his own bourbon, Bingham’s Bourbon, in 2024—further highlighting his creative vision and range of artistic pursuits.
