Hide AdRyan said: “I grew up watching music documentaries every weekend with my friends, dreaming about being an act or artist that has a documentary made about them.
“I never thought in a million years that it would become a reality.
“What began as a daunting opportunity ended up being one of the most fascinating projects I’ve been involved with so far.
“I am very flattered and honoured to be involved in this film and I hope everyone enjoys it. Warts and all.”
