In February 2016, eighteen-year-old Gretta Ray made a precocious entrance to the Australian music scene with the release of her debut EP ‘Elsewhere’ upon which she presented as fully-fledged singer-songwriter with an enviable command of language and keen vocal ability due in no small part to her vast experience singing in choirs since the age of five. A creative individual who’s as comfortable behind a camera (as exemplified by her highly curated Instagram) as she is behind the guitar, Ray confesses to a fascination with human emotion and an irrepressible desire to express herself. On her latest single ‘Drive’, a heavenly slice of cleverly-constructed indie pop with a discernible air of country, Ray flexes further than ever before lyrically, firmly establishing herself as one of the most exciting new artists of 2016. ’Drive’ was produced by award-winning composer Jonathan Dreyfus in collaboration with Nashville-based Australian music producer Josh Barber (Gotye, Archie Roach)
