Deanna Ray - Americana with an Operatic Twist
Deanna Ray Eberhart Von Fange – what a regal sounding
moniker! Deanna Ray, her “roots” music name, barely in her mid-20’s, presents as a fully mature artist. I was introduced to Deanna a couple of years ago by my colleague, and accomplished songwriter in her own right, Julie Bennett Hume. Deanna was still in college pursuing a double masters in vocal performance and Choral Church Music at the University of Kansas.
In addition to her own studies, Deanna has been teaching
music to students ages 8-14 including voice, guitar, ukelele and basic piano. I have witnessed the power of her operatic voice; she is truly a gifted force of nature that most assuredly has a long and accomplished career ahead of her in whatever genre she pursues. It has been an honor and privilege to get a glimpse into a musical world that is as organic as it is cerebral.
It is a pleasure to give space and airtime to an emerging Heartland artist as talented as Deanna. Enjoy this conversation and beautifully nuanced performance of original music from Deanna Ray.
