The ability to compose refreshingly candid music that resonates deeply with listeners is a rarity in music. Few artists possess this tool. However, R&B/soul singer-songwriter, musician, and record producer Macy Gray is one of them. With her vivacious voice, unshakable grip on soul, and funky spirit, Gray knows how to wield the power of music, which sets her apart from her contemporaries.

Originally from Canton, Ohio, Gray came to Los Angeles to attend USC for scriptwriting.While in school she started to write songs for her friends and found her voice when the singer scheduled to record the demos did not show up. That fateful day, a legendary career was born. Gray broke into the music scene in 1999 with the release of her debut, triple-platinum album, ON HOW LIFE IS; she has become a powerhouse of R&B and Soul. She has amassed a devoted global fan base and sold over 25 million total albums globally. Afive-time Grammy Nominee, Gray received the Grammy Award for Best PopVocal Performance in 2000 for her iconic song 'I Try' and has received two BRITAwards.
