Front man for the Goo Goo Dolls, Johnny Rzeznik is ready to take on a new challenge, as he takes the reins to produce an upcoming solo record for Atlantic Records artist Ryan Cabrera. Cabrera is a tallented young artist from Dallas, who was signed a multi-record deal last year. Johnny Rzeznik also helped co-write many of the songs on the upcoming album.”I think the chemistry between Johnny and I when we were writing songs together solidified my thoughts of having him produce. He brings such a unique quality to my songs and he’s able to capture so much more than I thought was possible not to mention the fact that I spilled his glass of red wine on his brand new freakin’ billion dollar white persian rug and I figured I should throw him a bone.”With his very personable attitude, mature songwriting, and catchy arrangements many predict great things for this unique artist. His debut album “Take It All Away” is due out June 8th.
