This time out, Ray trades in her acoustic guitar and goes electric. She’ll be joined on stage by a band featuring former members of lesbian band The Butchies and her producer, Greg Griffith (Le Tigre, Vitapup), on bass.

Ray kicks off the run Jan. 15 at Club Downunder in Tallahassee, Fla., and will hit clubs and theatres through early February.
Stops include Proud Larry’s in Oxford, Miss. (Jan. 17), Pontiac Garage in Dallas (Jan. 21), Martini Ranch in Scottsdale, Ariz. (Jan. 25), Troubadour in West Hollywood, Calif. (Jan. 28), WOW Hall in Eugene, Ore. (Feb. 2), and The Avalon Theatre in Salt Lake City (Feb. 6).
Support for the tour comes courtesy of singer/songwriter Jennifer O’Connor and psych/folk outfit Arizona.
