Singer, songwriter, international recording artist, vocal coach...Ray Lyell is a veteran of the music industry for over twenty seven years. In 1996, after thousands of concerts and three CDs on Spy & A&M Records, he left the road to get back to his roots and pursue a career in vocal coaching; helping young talent develop their skills. During that time he has worked with hundreds of students and has trained extensively himself, throughout the United States and Canada with very prominent vocal instructors such as Melissa Cross, Renee Grant Williams, Liz Lewis, Roger Beal and Ed Johnson who have coached some of the top recording artists and vocalists in the world. After a ten year hiatus, Ray released his fourth CD, entitled "Running On Faith."
Distributed across Canada by CMC (Christian Marketing Canada), “Running On Faithâ€was supported by a Canadian tour during the summer months of 2005. Backed by a strong line-up of well-known rock musicians including Helix members: guitarist Gary Borden and drummer, Brian Doerner, as well as Paula Tessaro, Lyell’s co-vocalist during the Ray Lyell and The Storm fame of the late ‘80’s and ‘90s, the album delivers the same roots-rock feel with direct messages of hope and inspiration.
