NEW MUSIC
Ray’s forthcoming second album, Ray Angry Three (J.M.I./Mister Goldfinger Music) “is my most personal album thus far in my artistic journey. Playing solo piano has always been rewarding for me on so many levels. Because it’s such an enormous healing tool, I’ve used this album to reflect on past relationships. The songs on the album are all dedicated to individuals who have had a huge impact on my life. My prayer is that Ray Angry Three becomes a source of goodness and comfort for each listener. It goes without saying how grateful I am to have partnered with J.M.I. on this release. It’s wonderful to work with a company that truly loves the art of making and recording music. Thank you to everyone that has been involved in the creation of this album.” – Ray Angry

It is also an acknowledgement of the divine feminine. It confronts the historic and resolves in the personal.”
