The former Player frontman and beloved Ridge Forrester shares his music, stories, and philosophy in an unforgettable concert at Tapiola Hall.
Ronn Moss — the American actor, musician, and eternal Ridge Forrester for Finnish audiences — brought his unmistakable charm and musical talent to Espoo’s Tapiola Concert Hall on October 8, 2025. Best known for his iconic role in The Bold and the Beautiful, Moss revealed himself to be far more than just a soap opera star. Long before television fame, he first rose to international prominence as a musician with the band Player, whose 1977 hit “Baby Come Back” topped charts around the world. That same song — still as radiant and irresistible as ever — was one of the highlights of the evening, performed by Moss with disarming ease and warmth.
The concert was an intimate, soulful journey. Moss performed both his own songs and beloved classics by Elvis Presley, Leonard Cohen, and Duran Duran. His voice carried warmth, and his presence radiated calm confidence. Between songs, he shared stories from his life — about his creative beginnings in Los Angeles, his love for music, and the family that shaped him. He spoke fondly of his mother, a renowned equestrian who once taught Elizabeth Taylor how to ride, and with tenderness about his sister, whose memory clearly remains close to his heart.
The concert was a great success — the audience cheered enthusiastically and savored every moment. The atmosphere was filled with warmth, positivity, and genuine admiration.
After the concert, I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Moss in person. The Hollywood star impressed me not only with his charisma but also with his youthful energy and luminous, thoughtful gaze. He spoke about art, media, brainwashing, and the importance of thinking independently in a world of lies and oppression. “Don’t watch TV, and don’t be afraid of anything,” he said. That simple sentence captured the essence of his worldview: freedom from fear and freedom from manipulation. In an age of constant media influence, Moss’s words felt like a breath of clarity. His nonconformism is not about provocation or rebellion for its own sake — it is about staying true to one’s inner truth.
And now, when humanity seems to stand at a crossroads — when fear, confusion, and one-sided media narratives cloud public thought — the presence of people like Ronn Moss feels more vital than ever. In a time when destructive and cynical forces have, unfortunately, become dominant in many spheres of life, his calm light and positive energy act as a counterbalance. He reminds us that beauty, art, kindness, and courage still have power — and that one sincere voice can make a difference.
Elena Ringo: What gives you strength and keeps you youthful and energetic?
Ronn Moss: It is a vibration. It’s a frequency. And the positivity that I talked about at the end of the concert — I meant it. It’s a feeling of positive affirmation, of positiveness in your mind. I get my energy from that. Even when I’m maybe not feeling totally 100%, I draw the energy in from the cosmos.
It sounds esoteric, it sounds cliché, but it’s true. There’s a lot of energy all around us all the time, and if you just relax and feel the electricity around you, it energizes you.
But positivity is one of the most important things. Positive thoughts are energetic; negative thoughts are the opposite — they drain energy. So I try to stay as positive as I can all the time. And it’s not a bunch of bullshit, and it’s not just a fake thing. For me, it’s real — it’s very real.
Elena Ringo: I want to thank you for your independent point of view which you are not afraid to express
Ronn Moss: Stop watching TV. There are a lot of things going on under the surface, and there are a lot of things that you’re not told. People hear something again and again and go, “Well, this has to be the truth — I’ve heard it so many times.” No, it’s not. I don’t believe the news — it’s all set from one source. They have one narrative, and they don’t want the world to know the truth.
Elena Ringo: Lots of negative energy surrounds us, unfortunately.
Ronn Moss: A lot of the warmongering stuff is being manufactured to keep everybody in the sphere — to keep everybody under control. It’s being done on purpose to keep everyone’s energy in a lower dimension. My feeling is: let’s raise our energy to a different frequency so that we’re not affected by all this negative stuff. Don’t let yourself be affected by it. The more positive energy you can generate, the more it will go out like ripples in a pond, and you’ll create a greater sense of positivity — a good, uplifting feeling. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be afraid of anything They’re trying to make us all afraid. I refuse. I refuse. Don’t act like we are all students. We, as humanity, are very powerful. And if everybody collectively says, “No — we’re not going to war. We’re not going to participate in your war. No, we’re not. Finito .” Nobody wants war. Well, some people do — but they’re very evil. So do not let them win. There are always far more of us than there are of them. Keep positive, and project love in the biggest way possible. But do not buy into the fear. Do not be afraid.
Elena Ringo: Do you believe in God?
Ronn Moss: I believe in GOD, great outdoors, GOD. I believe in Gods energy, that the world is made from High Source. I am not religious, but I am extremely spiritual.
Elena Ringo: And how to survive for 25 years on a TV show?
Ronn Moss: Just one day at a time. One day at a time — that’s my real life. I lived Ronn, and I lived that character, Ridge, in the same time frame — 25 years. So it’s just one day at a time. Yes, there are ups and downs, but ultimately, that’s the same as life. It’s the same — a creative thing and a real-life thing. I had to balance them. It was interesting. Very interesting. But I’m glad now to be on a different creative path. For me, I’m much more creative now — and I’m loving it. I’m loving being here now. That’s all we really have — the moment, right now. The true reality we have is this moment right now. Don’t waste it. Live it!
