Биография

Ray Stevens just thinks funny. His humor is keenly observant and rich in nuance. His style is unaffected and unpretentious which for the past sixty years has allowed for entertainment that is both witty and guileless. From his multi-million selling comedy hit, “The Streak” to the socially aware “Mr. Businessman” to his Grammy award-winning “Everything Is Beautiful”, Ray’s talent has touched so many around the world. Not only a singer and composer, Ray has also produced, arranged, and performed on many legendary Nashville recordings. Ray Stevens was born Harold Ray Ragsdale in Clarkdale, Georgia on January 24, 1939. In 1957, while he was still in high school, Ray made his first trip to Nashville and recorded his first track, “Silver Bracelet”, at the now historic RCA “B” studio. Since then, Ray has recorded 50 studio albums and had dozens of hits including "Gitarzan", "Misty", "Santa Claus Is Watching You", "Sittin' Up With the Dead", "Mississippi Squirrel Revival", "It's Me Again, Margaret", "Shriner's Convention", "Along Came Jones", "I Need Your Help Barry Manilow", "Would Jesus Wear a Rolex?", and "Jeremiah Peabody's Polyunsaturated Quick-Dissolving Fast-Acting Pleasant-Tasting Green and Purple Pills". In 2019, Ray Stevens was inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame. Throughout his career, Stevens has sold more than 40 million albums. Ray continues daily office operations at his home base, the CabaRay in Nashville, TN.
