Sue Ray, winner of the 2022 Queensland Music Awards Blues’n’roots award, is an Australian Indigenous multi-award-winning singer/songwriter that captivates audiences with her original brand of country/blues and roots music, smoky rich voice, and high energy performances.

Sue recently returned to Australia after being based in Nashville, where she worked alongside industry greats and connected into the scene, gigging and writing.

Sue Ray has released three critically acclaimed albums: "Best Beware" 2008, "Red Roses" 2011 (which she co-produced with Aria award winner Magoo) then "Live At The Junk Bar" 2017. In 2018, she released an EP titled "I Would Never Do That" recorded live in Nashville TN. In 2021, Sue released three singles including “All The Lonely Ones” cowritten with renowned writer Sean Sennett and her track “Take Me Away” which won the 2022 QMusic Blues’n’roots award.
