Bright Raven’s crystalline voice soars over her sophisticated and soulful songwriting. Compared often to Jeff Buckley and Joni Mitchell, Bright is truly lyrical, her warm sound like a golden backdrop for the captivating imagery of her words.

Her upcoming single, Temple, is about loss, courage, and looking beast in the eye before walking into its belly. It is a dreamy soundscape of introspection and, ultimately, joy, produced by Akiyoshi Ehara of Oakland, California.
