Ray announces full-length debut

Friday, May 12, 2023 – Frank Ray today announced he will release his self-titled debut label on July 7 via BBR Music Group/Stoney Creek Records.

Featuring 14 tracks, "Frank Ray" mixes a traditional country sound with R&B and touches of Ray's Latin heritage. Frank Rogers produced the set. "Somebody Else's Whiskey" is currently being pushed on the charts.

"This album is my grand entrance to the country music world," said Frank, who previously released an EP. "This project is a perfect reflection of who I am. I have finally figured out my voice, and this is what I have to say. I look at this album like a quilt I knitted, each stitch represents a person I love or an influence I admire."

The former police officer just launched his mental health initiative "FRAY"- standing for First Responders MentAl ClaritY - that helps provide first responders with the necessary tools they need for improved mental health due to the nature of their jobs. He makes it a point to visit local stations at every tour stop.

Ray is currently out on the road with Old Dominion.
