About Ravyn Lenae
Ravyn Lenae is a name synonymous with innovation in modern R&B. Hailing from Chicago, her journey began with a series of acclaimed EPs – Moon Shoes (2015), Midnight Moonlight (2017), and Crush (2018) – which quickly established her as an artist with a truly unique vocal signature and a flair for crafting intricate, atmospheric soundscapes. Her voice is instantly recognisable: a delicate, high-pitched instrument that effortlessly glides over complex melodic arrangements, drawing comparisons to legends like Minnie Riperton and Erykah Badu, yet remaining distinctly her own.
Her critically lauded debut album, Hypnos, released in 2022, solidified her status as a formidable force in contemporary music. Tracks like “Sticky,” “Skin Tight” (featuring Steve Lacy), and “Light Me Up” showcased her incredible range, from sultry grooves to dreamy, introspective ballads. Lenae’s music explores themes of love, self-discovery, and vulnerability with a poetic grace that is both deeply personal and universally resonant. For her live performances, Ravyn Lenae typically brings a full, dynamic band, including drums, bass, keys, and guitar, allowing her intricate compositions to truly shine and providing a rich, immersive sonic experience for her audience.
