See you soon,

Quotes
"...bursting with talent"- WFUV,  John Platt NYC

“Raina Rose's fourth full-length album, When May Came, will surprise you with its cohesion and simplicity. Between her big voice, with its unusual blend of twang and jazziness, and her whimsical sense of storytelling, Rose is definitely not just another boring indie folk songstress.”- Redefine Magazine

"I'm always moved when I sense an artist is leaving everything on the table, and with When May Came Raina Rose seems to dig deep for a powerful release. Recorded live over "four sweltering September days in Austin, TX" the album strikes me as immediate, honest and, best of all, lyrically and musically compelling." - KBCS, Sean Donovan

"She’s not afraid to get plenty of grit under her fingernails with her words, and her voice has head-spinning potency. I only caught a couple songs, but she sold me." - Sarah Hagerman, Steam Powered Preservation Society

"You jumped on every song like a cat, broke my heart, made me  laugh and I knew that I could brag about you to anyone and feel completely justified." - Jonathan Byrd
