His next effort, featuring songs written over the span of a decade, was ''Weeks, Months, Years'', which was released in 2008.〔Classen, S "McMahon shares his coming of age" () Saskatoon Star Phoenix 11 September 2008〕 "It's a CD about time. It's a CD about growing into being a man and finding out what kind of fella I want to be," McMahon said while on tour celebrating the album's release.〔 The song Road Signs from that album was included on Big Rock Brewery's 2009 compilation CD, ''Big Rock Untapped 2''.〔Andrews, Marke "Commerce and culture - why they're looking for a match" () Vancouver Sun 21 February 2009〕 In 2011, McMahon released ''All Good Stories'', an acoustic album recorded at Richard Leighton's home studio in Lantzville, British Columbia.〔Chung, Lindsay "Award-worthy artists performing at Joe's Garage" () Comox Valley Record 16 February 2012〕 "''All Good Stories'' is exactly that: a collection of stripped-down material that I needed to record in a very organic environment," McMahon has said.〔 McMahon describes ''All Good Stories'', which was named Album of the Year at the 2012 Vancouver Island Music Awards, as the most honest album he has created so far. "It was the first time that I'd ever let the songs stand by themselves," he says. "The whole mantra of that record was what is the least amount of stuff I can do to this record to make it great and just let it stand on its own."〔Cole, Megan "Ryan McMahon, Cory Woodward and Christopher Arruda travel to Nelson" () Nelson Star 1 May 2012〕 McMahon is currently working on a new album and will be releasing ''Put Me Back Together'' in April 2015.〔Pescod, Nicholas "Songwriter credits fans for saving him" () Nanaimo News Bulletin 27 January 2015〕 McMahon, who has released five full-length albums in 15 years, says the record is a reflection of his time living on Vancouver Island.
