The Transformation What happened to Ryan Dingle? I was asked last night from a dear friend of mine, he said you made an amazing album and then you disappeared... I want to explain what happened, Every step. When I was born, I was given a different name, Stephen Benson was my name, but taken from my mother very young I was given to the dingle family without any documentation, and only hearing that my name was Ryan. Later in my life, we found the documents that said Stephen. Which was remarkable because the man who raised me, a Darug man who inspired me deeply for an indigenous way later in my life was named Stephen and born on the same day as me. So with this prophetic view I knew my name as Ryan and changed my name in the documents later in life. Then Picking up music as a teenager in a small country town, and a generation where binge drinking and drug abuse was fashioned. Music became my saviour, an opportunity to move forward within life, a medium of expressing my emotions, to bring healing within my life and those around me. I then moved into the city studying music and later on recording my album The Wolf Who Cried Boy And then starting my Journey. Now The Wolf Who Cried Boy was a great medium of expression of cleaning the slate in my heart, to be integral within the world, and to share the story of liberating to true truth that I was seeking. I was commented many times about the album on how it changed peoples lives, helped them express emotions, gave them healing. And I was stunned, I then Understood the meaning of true rawness and integrity for people to relate to emotion for them to express it and fine their own medium within healing.... But why didnt I push the album? Well as soon as I recorded the album, I started making phenomenal songs, each week progressed, and I grew more and more, the reasons and meaning of my music expanded as so my personality. People asked for me to do film clips, but I just wanted to record another album. Even though I only just recorded it at the time, I was ready to become a new man and went on a journey all around the world. I was 19 when I wrote this album, and I wanted to be a man that cleaned any anger that was in my heart at the time. When I went over to America, to Visit my Ancestors, I met a man that called me Sungmanitu Tanka, meaning Wolf I learnt a lot from this man, and as my songs grew deeper and deepen my appreciation for the wolf within my life and how it had guided me I started bringing the wolf to my heart stronger and stronger. It was 2014 when I changed my name to Ryan Whitewolf, Right before I saw my mother after years of not seeing her to resolute a chapter within my life. Through the healing of holding my mother and letting the resolution between son and mother, man and woman take place. Nobility took order. I then made a new band page that im writing on right now called Whitewolf. The following morning, I made a fire really early, to set my prayers at my time as I was going onto a new journey. I was in my home country town, a dry area, that in its own is looking to be lifted. As I was holding my intention in the air, for the next chapter, a White Alsation came down the driveway, now these are one of the closest domestic animals to a white wolf. And too see one in a dry country town that ran away kms from its home to walk down my drive way showed an amazing impact within my life and a sign for me to move forward. Change my name and to own it. Spending the night with this white wolf, singing songs around the fire I then spent my next year writing my songs and my next album to bring to the world and to travel the deserts of Australia to remember the meaning of music, the power of song, and the intention behind the gifts given. Im definitely not hiding my past, but Living the present and my future yes... For its a new legacy ive created, for me, my children and their children. So here I am, Ryan Whitewolf, Ready to share a whole new array of songs. Thank you for reading, and if youd like to show your support and interested in further songs and writings.
