Chicago-born and raised singer-songwriter Ravyn Lenae first started releasing music in the latter half of the 2010s with a trio of EPs, making the biggest splash with 2018’s Crush EP and its lead single “Sticky.” In 2022, Ravyn released HYPNOS, her critically acclaimed debut via Atlantic Records, with Steve Lacy, Monte Booker, and KAYTRANADA among its producers.
Her sophomore album, Bird’s Eye, was released in 2024 and garnered praise from numerous publications. Executive produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Dahi (Kendrick Lamar, SZA), Bird’s Eye is nestled within Ravyn’s memories of home, intertwining her vocals with pop, indie, reggae, jazz, and rock. She later made her late-night TV debut on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon and joined KAYTRANADA and Channel Tres on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Bird’s Eye notably features “Love Me Not,” which has garnered over a billion global streams and landed Ravyn her first top 5 appearance on the Billboard Hot 100.
2025 saw Ravyn’s debut performances at Coachella, her hometown’s heralded Lollapalooza festival, Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and a sold-out four-show residency at the Blue Note Jazz Club. She then launched her sold-out headline North American and UK/EU tours, while also joining Reneé Rapp and Sabrina Carpenter on select dates of their respective arena tours. While 2025 remains a breakthrough year, Ravyn intends for an even bigger 2026 with the release of her third studio album coming soon.
