Bright Raven’s crystalline voice soars over her sophisticated and soulful songwriting. Compared often to Feist, Jeff Buckley, and Joni Mitchell, Bright is truly lyrical, her warm sound like a golden backdrop for the captivating imagery of her words. In addition to her musical endeavors, Inés Beltranena (Bright Raven) is also a painter and a writer, with a focus on Magical-Realism. She also studies Myth, Folklore, and Ancient Civilizations, which frequently weaves itself into her songwriting. Her recent single, Temple, is about loss, courage, and looking the beast in the eye before walking into its belly. It is a dreamy soundscape of introspection and, ultimately, joy.
