The beautiful Ms. Ryan delighted the sold-out house with heartfelt stories, inspired songs choices… and that voice. What a voice. Her setlist lifted us with a hysterical “Belt-aholic” medley and moved us to tears with “Bring Him Home”. Joan deserved those three standing ovations and earned those two encores. Do yourself a favor and find Joan Ryan’s next performance. You will leave smiling, and humming, and possibly attempting to “belt” a song of your own.
What an amazing night with the wonderful Joan Ryan, live at North Hollywood’s “Sterling’s Upstairs” at the Federal.
