Raya Yarbrough is a writer and singer-songwriter based in Los Angeles, California. Raya has written and produced five albums of eclectic music, most recently North Of Sunset West Of Vine (2018) a concept album, based on Yarbrough’s original staged musical of the same name, and Artifacts of Grace (2020), which is her poetry converted to song, based on a series of paintings and sculptures by artist Pam Douglas that explores the way female-bodied experiences intersect with larger issues of justice and equality. In addition to songs, Raya writes poetry, flash fiction, and creative nonfiction about living in Los Angeles, and growing up as a multiracial human. She lives in California with her husband and children and is finishing a humorous memoir about her first five years of being an artist while parenting.
