Rae Isla
Rae Isla is a modern travelling bard — a storyteller, multi-instrumentalist, and independent force whose songs feel both timeless and urgently human. Blending indie folk, alt-country, and cinematic Americana, Rae’s music is rooted in vivid imagery, emotional honesty, and a lifelong devotion to songcraft.
Classically trained and a Berklee College of Music alumna, Rae has toured extensively, released critically praised albums Another Life and New Frontier, and earned recognition from outlets including Rolling Stone and Billboard. Her live shows are immersive and intimate, weaving voice, guitar, and cello into stories of love, freedom, and the winding roads we travel.
Whether performing in a theatre or a candle-lit room, Rae Isla brings the spirit of an old-world bard into the modern age — carrying songs from town to town, inviting audiences to listen closely and feel deeply.
