Kurt Ryle
Following high school, Curt Ryle worked with many country music legends, including Mel Tillis, George Jones, and Vern Gosdin to name a few.
As a studio musician, Curt Ryle played guitar on recordings for many artists including Taylor Swift, Brooks & Dunn, Trisha Yearwood, Marty Stuart, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Paul Overstreet, Steve Holy, Hal Ketchum, Mark McGuinn, Pam Tillis and Mel Tillis.
After decades of working with studios in Nashville, such as Warner Brothers, and Mel Tillis Enterprises, Ryle-one of Nashville’s most prolific musicians/songwriters & producers, finally tired of the daily commute - opened Big Matador Recording at his Clarksville home near Dunbar Cave.
In 2021, he and Steve Markwardt of Markwardt Enterprises, Ft. Worth, Texas partnered together to create Clarksville Creative Sound. Today it is the fastest rising star on the horizon and the return of REAL traditional Country music is on the near horizon.
