RAYE on Tour

Rising UK artist RAYE is not a polite pop star. If it happened, she'll write a song about it, and nothing's off limits. Her music is fun and dance-worthy, but cathartic in its subject matter. She deftly blends blues, R&B, trip-hop and pop sounds with lyrics written straight from the heart and experience.

RAYE has written songs for artists like Beyoncé, John Legend, Little Mix and David Guetta, but gained notoriety as a performer after being featured on several UK Top 20 hits, including "By Your Side" with Jonas Blue, "You Don't Know Me" with Jax Jones, "Secrets" by Regard, and "Bed" with Joel Corry and David Guetta. In 2017, "Decline," featuring Mr. Eazi, was her first UK Top 20 hit.

In 2019, she was honored with BMI's Impact Award for her creativity and impact on the music industry. In 2020 she released the EP Euphoric Sad Songs featuring the UK Top Ten single "Secrets."

On her debut album, My 21st Century Blues, RAYE offers brutal honesty on songs like "Ice Cream Man," which details a personal tale of sexual abuse. She also addresses an eating disorder in the song "Body Dysmorphia," and addiction in the song "Mary Jane." My 21st Century Blues garnered widespread critical acclaim, and peaked at No. 58 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.

RAYE played her first major live shows in Europe and North America in 2022, and embarked on her first headlining tour in 2023. She has also opened for acts like Lewis Capaldi, Halsey, Khalid and Years & Years.

RAYE Live in Concert

Rachel Agatha Keen, known professionally as RAYE, was born on October 24, 1997. She was born and raised in the Tooting section of London before moving to Croydon. She started her music career young, guided by her father, who was the musical director at a church. She enrolled in the prestigious BRIT School in 2012, and while she dropped out after a few years, she continued to work on her music and released her debut EP Welcome to the Winter in 2014.

A standout from the EP titled "Hotbox" got attention, and a meeting was arranged with Polydor Records. RAYE parted ways with Polydor in 2021, citing frustrations with the label over their refusal to release her debut album. In 2023, the singer-songwriter made her U.S. network TV debut with a performance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and began touring for the first time as a headlining act.

    The BEST Performer

    Raye is such a wonderful singer and performer. She sets the vibes and is so personable with the audience. Her band is amazing too. I’ll go see her any chance I get.

    What an incredible show! Didn’t know what to expect, but I was blown away. Rayr was honest and vulnerable and so endearing on stage. And her voice!! It’s incredible! A show you won’t want to miss.

    The concert wasn’t for me

    by AJ on 11/6/23Fox Theater - Oakland - Oakland

    I cant say that Raye was a bad performer, but I can say that this concert was not what I was expecting. I’m a big fan of hers but this concert was not what I was expecting. It was too jazzy for me likes and the crowd was not my vibe. It was not something I would have purchased going in to it. She was not a bad entertainer, the sound and performance just did not fit my style and how I enjoyed the art of her songs. I would not see again, I will join from the comfort of my AirPod.

    by Zahra A. on 11/3/23Commodore Ballroom - Vancouver

    The concert was amazing, her sister Absolutely opened for her and they are both such great artists, I felt a genuine connection with her through the concert as she made a point to make sure everyone was ok and kept checking in on people. 1000% worth it and I will be going to future concerts

    What a show

    by Katie on 11/3/23Commodore Ballroom - Vancouver

    I wasn’t a big fan before I went to see her, just tagged along with friends. The show was outstanding- it started off with her slower songs - it was like being at a cabaret and her vocals were amazing . She then went into her more dance music and it was like a nightclub ! Came out of there a fan !
