Created

Fournier and Blackwood created the songs for "Freedom Because" and Ryan recorded at Titan Music Inc Studios (Madonna, Anastasia, Michael Jackson). Kyan said "It was very refreshing and exciting to work with Ronald Bruner (Prince's drummer).

Kyan feels we should all try to just be ourselves because, “I feel we are forced to not be ourselves in this world".

Kyan Blackwood's debut single "Moving On" is released on 5 May 2014 on Jaywalker Records followed by the full length album "Freedom Because" on 26 May 2014. The single comes packed with a hot Club remix from Pimen.

80s legend Paul Young recently had Kyan as his support act on the big outdoor mainstage at the Blue Bell Hotel in Bridlington, Yorkshire.
