    This newly remastered version of Ryan’s breakthrough 2008 album Letters From North of Town features enhanced sonic quality, along with a brand-new cover design and artwork. Several of Ryan’s most cherished and well-known songs are all here; “Chasing Heaven”, “Always Have The Moon”, “In My Eyes”, “Rain Down”, and the title track.
    From the original notes…
    Acoustic-driven, electric-tinged, singer-songwriter in the style of Fogelberg, Steven Curtis Chapman and the Eagles. Songs about the journey of life and God's gifts to us.

    Letters From North of Town is a travelogue/prayer journal set to music. Songs about traveling, praying, living, and searching for God and finding Him in some of the most unexpected of places! :)

    From the country-rock of "Chasing Heaven" and Gospel/R&B-tinged "Rain Down" to the quiet solace of "In My Eyes", these songs are a reflection of God's love and patience. These songs are from some of those times, struggling, searching, and finding Him. I hope that they inspire and uplift you.

lyrics

Highway 30 Blues – Ryan Sheeler

VERSE 1
Driving on the highway Oil gauge in the red
My baby’s left me and the devil’s in my head

I got to roll, before they catch me again
Lookin’ out on the prairie I got them Highway 30 blues

VERSE 2
Long nights in cheap hotels hidden ‘neath the sheets
Street lights shinin’ and I ain’t got no sleep

I got to roll, before they catch me again
200 miles from nowhere, I got them Highway 30 blues

VERSE 3
Three days on the road feels more like ten
Lord knows I ain’t had no sleep since I don’t know when

I got to roll, before they catch me again
200 miles from nowhere, I got them Highway 30 blues

VERSE 4
Lookin’ down the road wonderin’ what I see
Devil on my shoulder but the Lord is holdin’ me

I’m still runnin’ before they catch me again
200 miles from nowhere, I got them Highway 20 Blues

VERSE 5
Finally get home still too far away
My baby’s out there and here I got to stay

I got to run before they catch me again
They got me in those Highway 30 blues
