Ryan Follese's name may not be overly familiar to country music fans just yet, but he is certainly no stranger to the music scene. Born to hit songwriters Keith and Adrienne Follese, the 29-year-old singer formed the poppy punk-rock band Hot Chelle Rae in 2005 and earned a Top 10-charting, multi-platinum hit with "Tonight Tonight" in 2011 -- but now, he's returning to his country roots.

Follese has been earning airplay and gaining fans with his first single, "Float Your Boat", the artist released his self-titled debut EP on BMLG Records. The six-track project, which comes in advance of a full-length project scheduled for a 2017 release, was written entirely by Follese, along with his parents, brother Jamie Follese and friend Cameron Montgomery; Montgomery and Dann Huff produced the record.
