Frank Ray continues his meteoric rise in country music with a major career milestone. The breakthrough Mexican American singer-songwriter has inked a global publishing deal with Sony Music Publishing Nashville, marking another significant step in his journey to reshape the genre's landscape.
Ray has been making waves by seamlessly weaving his cultural heritage into contemporary country music, creating space for Latino artists in a traditionally homogeneous genre. His authentic approach has resonated with audiences and industry heavyweights alike, earning him coveted opening slots for major acts like Luke Combs, Kane Brown, Old Dominion, Luke Bryan, Kip Moore, and Brett Eldredge.
The artist's momentum shows no signs of slowing with tracks like “Streetlights” and “Uh-huh (Ajá)” gaining traction, while his latest offering “Miami in Tennessee” showcases his signature blend of country and Latin influences. The high-energy single demonstrates Ray's ability to bridge musical worlds while maintaining the storytelling essence that defines great country music.
Ray's career trajectory has been impressive since his 2021 breakout with “Country'd Look Good on You,” which propelled him to country radio success and earned him a Grand Ole Opry debut in 2022. He's since achieved the coveted #1 spot on Texas Country Radio and secured a record deal with BBR Music Group/Stoney Creek Records.
The recognition extends beyond radio play, with major outlets including Rolling Stone, CMT, TIME, and Good Morning America taking notice of his unique contribution to country music. His appearance at Country Radio Seminar further solidified his position as an artist to watch in the evolving country landscape.
With Sony Music Publishing Nashville's support and the guidance of manager Oscar Chavira, Ray is positioned to expand his influence as both a performer and songwriter, potentially opening doors for other Latino artists seeking to make their mark in country music.
