Mark Ryan Releases Two More Tracks from "Wuthering Heights" Musical Project Based on the Novel by Emily Bronte - Six Songs Now Live at WutheringHeightsMusic.com

    REDONDO BEACH, CA, January 05, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Singer/songwriter/actor Mark Ryan and co-producer Robb Vallier have completed two more tracks from Ryan's musical adaptation of Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights" which are now available for streaming at www.wutheringheightsmusic.com and www.myspace.com/wutheringheightsmusic. Recording commenced in June 2008 and there are now a total of six songs online for streaming while one song, "Women," remains as a free download at the Wuthering Heights Music website. Jenn Korbee performs "I Am The Man" and "Kiss The Moon" features Ryan. A total of eighteen songs will be released online by LMB Entertainment in the coming year, while Ryan continues to develop his musical adaptation of "Wuthering Heights" as a screenplay.

The vocal ensemble for Wuthering Heights Music includes Ryan performing as Heathcliff; Jenn Korbee in the role of Cathy; Jessica Keenan Wynn as Nelly; and Katie Boeck as Isabella. Since launching in September 2008, the website has received visitors from all over the world, streaming the initial four songs: Dark Passion, Women, Heathcliff's Prayer and I love The Wind. The music video for "Women" featuring Korbee, Keenan Wynn, and Boeck, has also generated a great deal of activity on the website, YouTube, and MySpace Music.

"I am touched by the reaction Wuthering Heights Music has received and am enjoying the positive feedback from Bronte fans," commented a proud Ryan. "This truly is a labor of love for me because of my childhood in Yorkshire. It's a real pleasure to be working with Robb Vallier who brings the tracks to life with such powerful vocal performances by Jenn, Jessica and Katie and world-class musical contributions by Brad Fernquist and Tina Guo."

Growing up amongst the hauntingly romantic landscapes of Yorkshire, Ryan developed an emotional connection to the story of Wuthering Heights, inspiring him to write eighteen original songs. The project was put on hold for Ryan's burgeoning film and television career, and with the success of Transformers (Ryan voices Bumblebee), he decided it was finally the right time to record the music. Fans of Ryan, from his early days on Robin of Sherwood to his young Transformers fans, have embraced the new project and helped to support it online.

Mark Ryan has had a successful career in theater, film and television for over 30 years, including Evita in London's West End originating the role of Magaldi and most recently voicing Bumblebee in the blockbuster film Transformers. www.MarkRyanActor.com.
