Ray April

Taking “Ray” from rays of sunshine, and “April” known for its rainy days, Ray April’s music gently balances radiance with introspection.

With her enchanting, atmospheric sound, Ray April is a musical storyteller who explores different personas and crafts dreamy worldscapes through her songs. Ray April’s music evokes the sounds of Lorde, Halsey, Melanie Martinez, The Last Dinner Party, and One Republic.

On Ray’s debut EP Chasing Echoes, each song serves as a heartfelt letter to her dearest friends. Chasing Echoes is out now!
