"STRIPPED + BARE" is a limited seating concert event created by Ryan Innes, and hosted by Velour. On these intimate acoustic shows the artists play in the middle of the floor surrounded by the crowd. This creates a living room feel and gives the artist freedom to tell more of the backstory behind their songs, and to better interact with their fans.

RYAN INNES: “Ryan is a soulful bearded crooner who you may have seen on Season 4 of The Voice or Season 2 of Songland. He’s been writing and playing across the country ever since and has songs placed on NBC, ABC, Netflix, NFL, Dude Perfect YouTube and many more. Over the years, Innes has developed a distinct and dynamic artistic voice in his live sets. One that can be heartbreakingly intimate at one moment and soaringly epic the next. The range of emotions Innes can articulate in a single song or across a setlist mirrors the emotional scope of the artist’s life, a contrasting mélange of turmoil, peace, grief and hope.”

EMMA NISSEN: Meet Emma Nissen, a Swedish-American songwriter with a rich, deep voice—and the music to match. Emma’s willingness to dive into life with a spirit of exploration carried her through her first years away from home and into her current career. During the pandemic, Emma wrote her first hit song, “Gotta Have Faith.” She describes that experience as a wave of inspiration, the door that opened to new opportunities to share her faith. Since then, she has written dozens of both Christian and secular songs, with many more in the making.Reflecting on her creative inspiration, Emma remarked, “My songs address many different facets on the surface but in reality, they are all saying, “God loves you. Hold on to Him. Trust He has a plan.” As she continues to rise in the music industry, Emma simply hopes to share messages of love, encouraging listeners to look for the good in others and find ways to enjoy the simple things in life.”
