The Pop vocalist also produced reputable tracks for U2, Adele, Beyoncé, 5Seconds of Summer, Charlie Puth, Jennifer Lopez, Ed Sheeran and Paul McCartney.
“Sucker” originally sang by Jonas Brother and written by Ryan, was also played during that evening.
Ryan Tedder and Zac Filkins both discovered their love for music in high school when they both played soccer together. Besides music, the band members also insisted that Singha beer and general Thai food just happened to be their favourite.

Good one Ryan!
