I was really nervous to ask him about the song he wrote about his late Uncle, but when I did, his answer was so raw and genuine.

Ray explains how he hooked the multi-genre veteran for "Higher Education," the title track from his new EP.

Michael Ray's new EP, 'Higher Education', is due out on Aug. 27.

The singer kicks off a 21-date tour in mid-June.

The artist wrote "Picture" in the wake of the death of his Uncle Terry in June of 2020.

Ray went countrier than ever for "Whiskey and Rain," and that's just the beginning of his traditional-minded next chapter.

In debuting a new song earlier this month the "Next Girl" singer once again looks to have dug deep into her personal narrative.

"It was very clear that this was not the marriage that I wanted," she says.
