Ryan LittleEagle

Ryan LittleEagle is an Indigenous singer-songwriter, musician, and storyteller whose music blends Lakota heritage with Country and Americana traditions. Rooted in Native American culture and shaped by rural America, his songs weave ancestral memory, modern life, and timeless storytelling—honoring the past while speaking directly to the present.
Originally from Canyon Lake, Texas, and now based in Three Forks, Montana, LittleEagle draws inspiration from wide skies, small towns, and working lands across the country. His music reflects the values he calls the small-town dream: hard work, honesty, resilience, and a deep connection to place. Influenced by artists such as Jason Isbell, George Strait, Randy Travis, and Ian Munsick, he blends classic Country and Americana songwriting with Native American rhythms, melodies, and perspectives.
Storytelling sits at the heart of Ryan LittleEagle’s work. His songs explore themes of identity, family, heritage, love, loss, and survival, offering listeners an authentic and deeply human experience. With over 17 years on the road, hundreds of performances across the United States, and five studio albums released—including Native Americana—LittleEagle continues to bridge tradition and modern expression. Through his music, he invites listeners to slow down, listen closely, and reconnect with heritage, community, and home.
