My name is Ryan Olson. My friends call me Rydog. Where do I come from? Music. Music is my passion, my everything.
I come from a musical family that embraced creativity and artistry first. From a young age, I began playing guitar, singing, and getting my hands on as many CDs and vinyl records as I could!
Today, that has translated into pursuing my dreams of becoming a musician. In 2019, I picked up the lap steel guitar, and today you can find me playing any guitar with a steel bar in my hand: dobro, lap steel, and pedal steel guitar.
Currently, I am a touring musician for Americana artist Caleb Montgomery and the Wild West Show based in Northern California. Be sure to check out his work and artistry. I am a radio show host for SteelRadio.org, a community non-profit radio station supported by listener financial donations, memberships and business underwriting, presenting the music of the heroes of steel guitar in Hawaiian, country and western, and steel guitar jazz. SteelRadio also presents the many ways steel guitar, dobro and slide guitar are being used today.
