It is especially gratifying for Musical Lairs to host the CD release party for one of our founders. Ray Naylor and Barb Ginsberg started this series over thirteen years ago. For the last 29 years, Ray’s been involved in the acoustic music scene in Philadelphia in many roles, including performing songwriter, concert producer and venue booker, manager of several songwriters, open mic host, and musician newsletter publisher. Ray has also produced a folk internet radio show on Live365 called Fiddles & Frets. Now, Ray is focusing his energies on his own music. More than anything else he loves to get in front of an audience and share his music. “My goal when performing is to get people to say, ‘I could have done anything tonight, I'm glad I came here to hear the music’. Ray’s style of music can best be classified as folk/country or Americana. Philadelphia’s City Paper termed Ray’s music “Alternative Folk”. Ray has a special interest in keeping alive the songs of Phil Ochs, and is always ready to perform a program of Phil Ochs songs. Come help us celebrate the release of his second CD, “No Shrink Wrap.”
