Ray/Burnin’ Blue

About Me


I live for music. I play guitar and bass. I am currently studying music at Northside Art's School of Blues. I believe in constantly challenging myself to be a better musician and the success I've achieved has come from never giving up!

Burnin’ Blue


I am the bass player for Burnin' Blue. We play a variety of blues, classic rock, oldies and even a little country to entertain you.
