With her confident sense of fusing warm soul roots with innovative productions, Chicago musician Ravyn Lenae has long been an exciting name on the alternative R&B scene. With her second album Bird's Eye (2024), created in collaboration with Grammy-winning producer Dahi (Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott and more), she has firmly established herself as a household name.
Balancing futuristic productions with a strong sense of tradition, Bird's Eye is carried throughout by personal songs and a unique voice that ties the eclectic musical expression together. Ravyn Lenae manages to move seamlessly between soul, R&B, indie rock, jazz, and psychedelic atmospheres without ever losing her grip on the listener.
The album, which also includes collaborations with the likes of Childish Gambino and Ty Dolla $ign, has received excellent reviews. "A breathtaking pop suite" is what The Guardian called the album, and other critics have compared Ravyn Lenae to an artist like Solange.
It's not hard to see why SZA and Noname have invited her on tour, and Ravyn Lenae is well on her way to positioning herself as a modern R&B star in her own right. Now, she's bringing her soulful songs and her killer band to Roskilde Festival for a powerful musical experience.
