Hey, all!
I'm getting down to the wire on finishing my record! The last tiny bits are getting collected from amazing musicians near and far. Needless to say, I'm excited to be wrapping things up. I'll be sure to holler when I've got stuff to share!
In the meantime, check my "Gigs" page, as I've got some fun outings ahead. I'm delighted (as always) to be backing up Scott Miller this weekend. And in a couple weeks, I'll finally have a show with Nathan Salsburg! Yay!
Thanks for stopping by the site -
Take care,
rayna
Rayna Gellert grew up in a musical family, and has spent most of her life immersed in the sounds of rural stringband music, heartfelt gospel songs, and old ballads. After honing her fiddle skills playing at jam sessions and square dances, Rayna fell into a life of traveling and performing. Her fiddle albums are widely celebrated in the old-time music community, and she has recorded with a host of musicians in a variety of styles – including Robyn Hitchcock, Tyler Ramsey, Sara Watkins, Loudon Wainwright III, John Paul Jones, and Toubab Krewe. From 2003 through 2008, Rayna was a member of the acclaimed stringband Uncle Earl, with whom she released two albums on Rounder Records and toured like mad. These days she can be found on stage with Abigail Washburn, Scott Miller, and Toubab Krewe. She lives in Swannanoa, North Carolina.
