Welcome to Bluesman.ca
Perry Ritthaler
Welcome to the official home of Perry Ritthaler, where every song begins with a story.
For me, songwriting has never been about simply writing lyrics or recording music—it’s about creating songs that people remember, songs that become part of someone’s life.
Over the years, I’ve written and published more than 200 original songs, now streaming worldwide across 23 major digital music platforms. My catalogue spans blues, country, reggae, inspirational music, romantic ballads, and cinematic storytelling, each one written with the goal of touching hearts, inspiring hope, and celebrating the moments that connect us all.
Whether it’s a song about enduring love, overcoming life’s challenges, finding faith, or simply enjoying the rhythm of everyday life, every lyric begins the same way—with a blank page and an idea worth sharing.
The Bluesman
Music has been part of my life for many years, and the blues has always held a special place in my heart.
As The Bluesman, I perform a collection of classic blues songs using professionally licensed backing tracks featuring real musicians, allowing me to share my passion for one of the world’s most influential musical styles.
The blues taught me honesty, emotion, and storytelling—qualities that continue to influence every original song I write today.
Whether performing the blues or creating new music, my goal remains the same:
Create songs that people feel as much as they hear.
A Songwriter for Every Genre
Music has no boundaries. Every story deserves its own sound.
My growing music collection includes:
“What story deserves to be told?”

Inside the Creative Studio
Every song starts here.
Inside my creative studio, ideas become lyrics. Lyrics become melodies. Melodies become recordings. Recordings become albums enjoyed by listeners around the world.
Today’s technology allows me to explore new creative possibilities while remaining true to what matters most: great songwriting.
Every project begins with imagination, thoughtful lyrics, memorable melodies, and a commitment to creating music with lasting meaning.
