He began busking on the Streets of San Francisco and performing songs he had written. His music tells about the struggles of coming to America with very little and trying to make a life. Rian soon met up with Victor Campos where the two began writing together and began recording these songs in studio with the help of Grammy nominated Producer James Gardiner.
