A Ray-Markable performer

Not many people can say they’ve pursued their passion since childhood but that is precisely what Darren J Ray has done.

Having been performing professionally for over 20 years, Darren has carved out a career for himself that many are envious of.

His career was first sparked at the tender age of nine, when he won his way through to a grand final round of New Faces in Melbourne. This seemed to ignite a fire for performance in Darren because before too long he won the Royal Brisbane Hospital New Faces competition which earned him a place on local radio with famous icon Wayne Roberts. From there Darren continued to grow his career in leaps and bounds.

Darren has won various competitions throughout Australia and performed at many big-name events such as the Gympie Music Muster, the Coca-Cola National Karaoke Competition, and the Brunswick Markets Talent Search. The list of goes on. Now he travels throughout Australia, performing his own much-coveted music with the Darren J Ray Band.

This show is certainly not something to be missed. Darren J Ray writes and composes his own music and he performs flawlessly on stage.

Audiences comment that is seems like his music is written for his venues, and that’s because it is!

Darren J Ray’s original singles are equally toe-tapping whether they are performed as a solo with Darren and his guitar or with the rest of the Darren J Ray Band. It is very few artists indeed who can boast hits this versatile.

Lucky audiences are in for a treat as this is their chance to catch Darren J Ray live at the Tewantin Noosa RSL on Thursday 31 October from 6pm.
