Artist Spotlight

Born and raised in Philadelphia, guitarist and composer Rayna Zemel has taken full advantage of the two years that she has lived in Los Angeles. She has been featured on a (Grammy-nominated) Alice Smith recording and worked with the likes of Imani Coppola and the Ruby Friedman Orchestra. Several of her original compositions are also licensed for use in the Fox Sports Library.

Before relocating the Golden State, Rayna was lead guitarist of the Vermont-based punk/surf band, Workingman's Army. In addition to composing, she has done sound design and audio mixes for a number of web series and independent movies. Her diverse and eclectic fusion of hip hop, pop, punk rock, and electronica has made her genre-defying style hard to define and definitely hard to miss. Her song "Falling Down" has made it to several Top Ten lists on Broadjam.com. make sure to check out, "Calamity Jane" to get a taste of Rayna’s guitar chops!
