Ryne Pineda is a singer, songwriter, musician, and music producer. Born in Chicago, IL of Filipino descent and raised in the northwest suburbs of the Windy City. Ryne's love affair with music started at a young age and continues to blossom. His early influences were listening to his father belt out songs as diverse as Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, and Stevie Wonder. As a child, Ryne would study the moves of musical acts such as Michael Jackson, New Kids on the Block, and N'Sync, which led to his obsession for singing and dancing. Inspired by the boy band movement, he formed his own group with childhood friends called 36D2. Their first performance was at a school talent show, where they performed N'Sync's popular hit "Bye Bye Bye". This led to several other opportunities to perform at local festivals, family parties, and a special feature on a Comcast public access TV show. The group began to lose its interest to continue, but for Ryne it was only the beginning of his journey. At age twelve, Ryne's father bought his first keyboard, where he learned how to play by ear, and then picked up the drums. In his teen years, he began writing songs and produced his first song called "I Just Wanna Luv You". He continued to write and produce, which led to producing songs for local Chicago acts such as K.Ellis, the Innovator, Young Merc, JCA, D-Man, and Brian Keys. An opportunity arose to work with Dawn Robinson, an original member of the Grammy nominated R&B group En Vogue and her husband recording artist Dre Allen. Ryne recalls the experience being a milestone because it was his first studio sessions with a major artist. Ryne attended Columbia College in Chicago to major in music business management. He was unable to finish his studies in Columbia, due to circumstances of his parents divorce. To get through the hard times, Ryne occupied his time with writing and producing to block out the depression. Originally, he planned to move to Los Angeles, but the costs of living were too high, due to financial constraints. Ryne and his father were persuaded by family to move to Las Vegas. Ryne continues to work on his craft and grow as a musician. He recently taught himself to play the guitar, which he calls to be a tremendous accomplishment. As the world awaits for his big break, he continues to reach for his dreams and aspirations. Ryne hopes to be the first Filipino American to break through into the entertainment industry and the footsteps for others. Ryne has always considered himself the next superstar and he is the next superstar the world is waiting for.
