The news of Ryan Whyte Maloney’s death has been confirmed by The Clark County Coroner in Las Vegas. The singer had had a long-standing musical career which he began when he was just a child.

He grew up playing guitar, violin, cello, and drums in Michigan. In 2005, he recorded an album as the frontman of ‘Indulge,’ a progressive rock group. He performed his music around the country. But his career really took off in 2014 when he appeared on the hit reality show The Voice, where he sang a rendition of the popular song ‘Lights’ by Journey.

The singer’s voice was unanimously loved by the judges, all four of whom turned their chairs to show support for him. Maloney had the choice to join any of the four judges and ended up choosing Blake Shelton.
