Raye Zaragoza is an American singer-songwriter from New York, NY based in Los Angeles, CA.

Biography

Raye Zaragoza was born and raised in Manhattan and moved to Los Angeles at the age of fourteen.[1] Her mother is an immigrant from Japan and her father is of Mexican and Native American heritage.[2] At age 6, Raye sang "You Can't Get A Man with a Gun" from Annie Get Your Gun on national television when her father was playing Chief Sitting Bull on Broadway.[3] She became involved in school musicals, started playing guitar at age 12, and started writing songs in her late teens.[3]

Zaragoza released her debut EP Heroine in 2015. She started to gain national attention in 2016 with the song "In The River," protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline.[4] Raye and her brother made a video for "In The River" that included facts about Standing Rock and it received 100,000 views overnight.[2] The song was awarded the Global Music Awards' 2017 Heretic Award for Protest/Activist Music[1] and the Honesty Oscars' award for Best Song.[5]

In 2017, she independently released her debut album Fight For You. Her music covers topics related to social justice and her experience as a woman of color.[2] Multiple songs on Fight For You address the Dakota Access Pipeline.[4] "Driving to Standing Rock" portrays the power of protest, specifically of the NoDAPL movement.[6] The song "American Dream" was written in reaction to Donald Trump's election.[7] The album also includes love songs[2] and songs about New York City.[8]

In 2019, she released live recordings of four songs — new song "Warrior" and three songs from Fight For You — on an EP entitled Live at Rockwood Music Hall which premiered first on Popmatters.[9]

She cites Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Joan Baez, and Buffy St. Marie as influences.[8]

In 2018, Zaragoza toured with Dispatch and Nahko and Medicine for the People raising funds for Generation Indigenous.[2]
