Deanna Ray is a singer-songwriter from Kansas City, MO. Her original music draws on 20th century folk masters such as Joni Mitchell and Judy Collins, but with a pop-rock and country flavor akin to Sheryl Crow.
Deanna's first album, "Summerland," was recorded and released when she was only 15 years old. After many years of study and work in the classical genre, Deanna released her sophomore album, "Green," in October of 2024. "Green" was recorded at Glass House Studio in Nashville, Tennessee with guitarist and producer Matthew Clinkenbeard. Deanna has played shows locally in Kansas City since 2014, appearing at venues and festivals including Records with Merritt, Mike Kelly's Westsider, Porchfest KC, Make Music Day, and on the radio with 90.1 FM KKFI and 90.9 The Bridge.
Deanna's next album, "Little Things," marks her first foray into the progressive folk genre. Rife with hooky guitar parts, direct lyricism, and mixed-meter forms, the songs offer listeners a rich soundscape that pushes the boundaries of what folk music can be.
