Ray Lani, was born in the Bronx, NY, and now lives on Long Island,
NY. Ray is very happily married with 3 grown children and a lovely
granddaughter. Family is most important in his life, along with
his faith in God. He has been a working guitarist/singer since
he was 15 years old. Since 1995 he has been writing songs and
as of June 2005, was # 213 on the Worldwide Mainstream “Most
Played” international country music charts, for major and
indie artists, right behind Garth Brooks and not far from Shania
Twain. His music on the “Maybe I Look For Miracles”
cd, is a blend of country, pop, and inspirational, with a touch
of blues. On the “Just Me” cd, Ray has written mostly
country/rock love ballads, and up-tempo songs. The songs are getting
lots of radio play, as they are very “singable” melodies
and lyrics you can understand. His main musical influences over
the years have been: Elvis, The Beatles, John Lennon, Santana,
and Nat King Cole. They all contribute to the various styles of
songwriting that Ray displays. Enjoy!! Peace!!
