Caleche Ryder
I’m a pop country recording artist currently based in Los Angeles. I was raised in rural San Diego riding horses and memorizing country songs, but I couldn’t completely identify with the lyrics on the radio. Artists were always singing about “the south” and none of my surroundings were being referenced. That’s why I sing about being a west coast cowgirl. I want to represent all the ranches and country music lovers of California and surrounding areas.
In 2002 I lost my big brother and best friend, Caylin Manos in a car accident. My life was forever changed. I knew he would want me to succeed and thrive, so I decided to live life in honor of my brother. I pursued a college degree at the University of Nevada, where I rode my horse, Harley and practiced my singing talent to compete for the title of Miss Nevada. I won my first crown performing “One Way Ticket” by LeAnne Rimes. I then competed for the title of Miss America in 2008, representing the great state of Nevada and toured the nation sharing Caylin’s story with young adults. I didn’t win and at that time, I ended a 6 year relationship that I thought would last forever.
Overcoming that cheating boyfriend inspired me to write some great country songs. Even better, I found love again. True love. A love that has really added a nice balance to my songwriting. My songs are not all sad, many have comical undertones, and loving undertones as well. I am fun-loving, quirky, and transparent. I want to make people dance, have a shot of whiskey, and dance some more…
