Kerrville
New Folk Award Finalist 2007
Our
friend Raina Rose is a boot-stomping
sinner/songwriter born on the day the music died.
She sings americana-folk songs of long travels,
fictional characters, time that plays tricks and the
tricks that governments play with a biting honesty.
Starting her life in Los Angeles during the Regan
era, her family soon emigrated to lovely Portland,
OR where Raina cut her teeth on the notable music
scene. Raina took off on tour in late 2005 and has
been at it ever since. Thanks to the campfires of
the Kerrville Folk Festival, Raina found the draw of
the Austin music community too strong and now calls
the Live Music Capital of the World her homebase.
She let that southern flavor sink in and now serves
a brave and heartbreaking brew of fingerpicking,
flatpicking, and fresh-voiced stories. Catch this
bird in flight all over the country. Raina was a
2007 Kerrville New Folk Finalist, has received
honorable mention in the Telluride Troubadour
contest, as well as appeared at High Sierra Music
Festival in '06, '07 & '09 and Oregon Country
Fair in '09.
