Ronan Tynan was first introduced to international audiences as a member of the Irish Tenors, and quickly became known for his unique voice and irresistible appeal. In the spring of 2005, he released his self-titled debut album, Ronan, with the heartfelt song "Passing Through" honoring his mother who suffers from Alzhe...imer's. Ronan debuted #2 on Billboard's Classical Crossover Chart, just behind Josh Groban, and was the 8th best-selling classical crossover album of 2005.
He has appeared on Primetime Live, Good Morning America, Hour of Power, 700 Club, and 20/20. Ronan is famous for his performances of "God Bless America" at Yankee Stadium during the seventh-inning stretch. His ability to simultaneously console and inspire is well-documented when, in the wake of 9/11, he performed at benefits and memorial services for New York's Finest and Bravest.
" ... and while Ronan claims that 'America has given me so much more than I'll ever be able to give back,' those who have attended his concerts, basking in the stirring beauty of his music and rolling with laughter at his self-effacing humor, may well just have to disagree." -- The Boston Globe
