Who is Ryan Laird?

Ryan Laird is a Canadian country music singer-songwriter.

He received recognition and media attention across The United States and Canada in December 2008 after putting up a billboard on Nashville, Tennessee's famed music row asking Taylor Swift to produce his album. Located at Broadway & 17th Ave, the billboard displayed Laird in a classroom holding a note reading “Hey Taylor - I LOVE your music. Will you produce my album?” Intern Adam from Nashville radio station 1075 The River, was also on the billboard firing a spit ball towards Laird from across the classroom.

When asked about Laird and his billboard on E! News Weekend, Swift said, "I definitely want to meet him ... I listened to one of his songs and absolutely fell in love with it, and I think he's got great melodies and he's a great writer. I think he could really be great and be huge, so it'll be really cool to maybe work with him." Laird said he was blown away and broke down when he saw the interview. "I was just ecstatic, tears came to my eyes," he said.

On March 28/2011, Laird released a music video for his single “I'm Your Man” which charted at No. 10 on the CMT Cross Canada Countdown on July 30/2011. The “I'm Your Man” radio single peaked at No. 10 on the BDS Canada Country radio chart in July 2011. "I'm Your Man" was nominated for a Canadian Radio Music Award.
