About the Artist:
Hey everyone! It's Ray. This session will feature a special group of songwriters/musicians, formed for this session, known as BADJR. It will be myself, Bethany Joy, Josee McGee, Daniel Socha, and Anthony Papaleo. We will each play songs as well as back eachother up. I had this idea because it reflects a part of our music community that the public doesn't often see. The 5 of us are just a small sect of the music community as large, but we've spent hours playing together just in our living rooms. We support eachother on and off stage, with music as the impetus, and love as the sustainer. Come get a window into our world by supporting this Suma Session!
Ray Flanagan is a Cleveland, OH based songwriter that writes and performs his songs with the no nonsense attitude of a skilled journeyman. Flanagan has performed with nearly everybody in the Northeast Ohio music scene, lending his keen musical sense and guitar artistry to artists of all genres. Even though he is one of the most sought after guitarists in Northeast Ohio, it’s his songwriting that is his true superpower. The shutdown forced Flanagan to mobilize a different outlet for his creativity, resulting in the quickened pace of releasing two self-produced songs on the first Friday of every month starting in January of 2021. These unfiltered songs offer the listener an authentic experience of a songwriter realizing their potential with every new song. Keeping a mind for music history and a creative target on the present moment, his songs and lyrics are signposts to his perception of the things that are happening right now.
