Raleigh, North Carolina's Burning Rays are a what hard rock is supposed to be. Combining influences that range from Thin Lizzy to Metallica, to The Misfits and ZZ Top, this power trio has rocked clubs all over the Triangle spreading the gospel of their high-powered rock n' roll.
Burning Rays has shared stages with a wide range of local and national bands over the past year and with the release of their self-titled debut, they look to further their impact on the Triangle music scene.
Drummer Jarod Hoffman, guitarist/vocalist John Bartholow, and bassist/vocalist Matt Salgado combine for a trifecta of throbbing rhythyms, soaring melodies and crushing power unlike anyone else in the local scene today.
A live setting is the optimal environment to appreciate what Burning Rays has to offer. A high-energy explosion of positive vibrations and sing-along choruses eminate from the stage when this band kicks into gear. If you get the chance to catch one of their shows, you won't regret it!
