Hailing from Hollywood CA, RoNN Moss grew up around the entertainment industry. He knew at 11 years old after watching the Beatles appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show that he wanted to play music and taught himself the bass guitar and drums. RoNN then formed his own bands and started playing in clubs around Los Angeles way before he was of legal age to be in those clubs.
It was in the late 70s that he met Peter Beckett and JC Crowley and together with Ronn’s high school friend John Friesen formed the band, “PLAYER.” The band was signed by famed Australian manager Robert Stigwood to his RSO records label and garnered and handful of top 40 hits including the #1 enduring smash hit, “Baby Come Back.” PLAYER began touring with Eric Clapton, Heart, Kenny Loggins, Boz Skaggs, Little River Band, Gino Vannelli, as well as headlining their own concerts. On the recommendation of Robert Stigwood, and because PLAYER was experiencing a slowdown within the record industry, Ronn decided to try his hand at acting and quickly landed his first film entitled, “Hearts and Armor” that filmed in Sicily and Rome,Italy. Following a progression of movies, TV shows and commercials, led Ronn to originate the iconic role of Ridge Forrester for the CBS Daytime drama, “The Bold And The Beautiful.”
Over the first 25 years the show became a worldwide sensation spanning 130 countries, making Ronn an internationally recognized face and personality. Upon leaving “The Bold and The Beautiful” in 2012, Ronn embarked on starring as John Blackwell in “The Bay The Series” and won 5 Emmys as producer for it and he went back to his roots touring with his band PLAYER for a few years with other Yacht Rock artist such as, Ambrosia, Christopher Cross, Al Stewart and John Ford Coley before deciding to tour as a solo artist.
Currently, Ronn has been writing original music for the films he’s been producing and doing various concerts and appearances in Italy, Bulgaria and Belgium. Ronn toured Australia in 2019 and his 2020 album “Lockdown Lover” features a new version of the classic PLAYER hit, “Baby Come Back” and was inspired during the 2020 lockdown and became his virtual love song to our world instead of a girl. Ronn went on to star in and produce a romantic comedy, “Surprise Trip” and recorded the soundtrack album for that film entitled, “Surprise Trip Love” as his latest solo album.
Creatively, Ronn was enjoying live performances from his recent 2023-2024 summer tours in Italy. In 2025 he toured Finland for the first time and directed his first film, “Tex McKenzie” a western that he also wrote original music for and is planning more European and American tours and movies.
