Long blending music and activism, in 2015 Ryan launched Firebrand Records with Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello to support fellow politically-charged musicians. A year later he recorded the previously unfinished Woody Guthrie song “Old Man Trump” with Morello and Ani DiFranco, which Guthrie penned while living in a segregated apartment complex owned by Donald Trump’s father Fred. Last year Ryan released a two-part album with Kareem Samara and Shireen Lilith called “Thin Blue Border,” which blends American and Arabic protest folk music.
