At 49 years old, Toryn Green physical status not available right now. We will update Toryn Green's height, weight, eye color, hair color, build, and measurements.

Green took his songwriting to the stage in his first band "Patience Worth", with band members Orion Rainz, Ryan Giles, and Cesar Guevarra. They recorded a few songs together, but eventually the band was moving in different creative directions. With his next band, Southern California rock band Something To Burn, Green won a Rock Beijing Global competition and was invited to play to thousands at the Midi festival in Beijing in October 2005. Two months later they represented America in the Worldwide Battle of the Bands held in Hong Kong. With STB Green recorded an EP entitled The Incinerator, which was released in April 2006.

Green was chosen the lead vocalist of hard rock band Fuel from over 1000 submissions on worldwide website auditions held in early 2006 to replace Brett Scallions. He recorded and submitted his version of the song "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)" two hours after hearing about the open website audition from a friend. Thinking that wasn't enough to stand out, he went on to buy instrumental versions of "Bad Day" and "Innocent", made a medley out of those songs with "Hemorrhage", and submitted it under different name. In the end, both his entries were listed among twelve finalists.

While auditioning for Fuel, Green met Scott Weiland (Velvet Revolver, Stone Temple Pilots) who got excited over the recording he had recently done with Something To Burn and offered them a deal through his label, Softdrive Records. However, around the same time Fuel made their offer, and Green had to decide between two contracts.

Green signed with Fuel in July 2006, before entering the studio to record the band's next album for Epic Records from August to November 2006. The official announcement of Green being the next frontman for Fuel wasn't made until April 19, 2007, on Extra TV show, exactly a year after the live auditions in Los Angeles. He co-wrote "Halos of the Son" with Jeff Abercrombie and former "Patience Worth" bandmate, Ryan Giles, and released it on their album Angels & Devils on August 7, 2007. The band toured in support of the album through early 2008 and appeared live on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and TLC’s season finale of LA Ink, where Green was featured getting ambigram tattoo on his forearm.

When Fuel went into hiatus in 2008, Green joined Finnish cello rock band Apocalyptica as their touring lead vocalist on both US legs of Worlds Collide tour, and again at Apocalyptica's US television debut on NBC's Last Call with Carson Daly.

After Fuel and Apocalyptica, Green began collaborations with different co-writers around the country, including Brian Vodinh of 10 Years. Wanting to have a band behind him on some of the songs that he was writing, Green teamed up with the remnants of Long Island hard rockers A Farewell Fire (Eddie Raccioppi, Mike Zagel, & Ray Rossler) who had recently split with their singer. The new band For The Taking played their debut gig at The Music Mill in Indianapolis October 12, 2009. The band continued writing and collaborating with a number of co-writers, including Corey Lowery of Eye Empire, Tommy Henriksen, and Skidd Mills. A couple of lineup changes later the band was composed of Green (lead vocals), Raccioppi (guitar, backing vocals), Joe Meyer (ex-Blameshift, bass), and James Miller (ex-Blameshift, drums).

For The Taking self-released Blackout EP on Amazon and iTunes on September 17, 2011, along with music video for the single "Lie To Me", directed by Brett Bortle. "Lie To Me" is a co-write with Corey Lowery.

Two songs from the 4-song demo that Green wrote with Brian Vodinh before forming the band, "Time is Running Out" and "Takedown", are featured on the MMA fighting movie Never Back Down 2: The Beatdown soundtrack. Due to the popularity of NBD2, For The Taking released "Time is Running Out" as a single on iTunes on December 8, 2011.

On January 27, 2012, before the show at Sky Bar Lounge in Indianapolis, For The Taking's trailer was broken into and $5000 worth of band equipment, including all guitars and merchandise were stolen. The band had to perform that night with rented gear. A week later, after anonymous tip informing of photos from the stolen property displayed at a Facebook page of a pawn shop, a local man was arrested in connection to the band theft and receiving stolen property. Only two of the missing guitars and some other equipment were discovered from his home.

On November 19, 2012, Green announced on the band's Facebook page that For The Taking is placed "into an indefinite hiatus". The band played their last shows in New York end of June 2012. Green joined Emphatic, and Eddie Raccioppi and Joe Meyer continued with Eddie's brainchild, a Long Island alternative rock band I Ignite.

Green was the new lead vocalist for the Omaha-based hard-rock band Emphatic, replacing the former singer Patrick Wilson, as announced on Green's Twitter and the band's Facebook on October 25, 2012. The band released a record titled Another Life on October 22, 2013. The single "Remember Me", written by Justin McCain, Toryn Green, and Sahaj, impacted radio on July 30, 2013, and was released on iTunes August 20, 2013. Both the album and the single charted in the Top 30 on Billboard and Mediabase rock charts, and the band had plans of touring in support of the album in 2014. However, Green didn't join Emphatic on tour with RED in February, but announced his departure from the band instead, stating creative differences with founder Justin McCain.

Green is currently focusing on his undergrad degree and heading into the field of Medicine while continuing with his music and acting career. In 2015, Green reunited with his former bandmates from Something To Burn for a country music project titled OUT WEST.
