Siesta Key-On the Music and the Muse with Grammy-nominated Ray Grant

Our featured Indie Artist is Chicago legend, the storyteller and Grammy nominated Ray Grant, who has just released a new song Siesta Key, which might be his best to date. Think Gordon Lightfoot in a Hawaiian shirt. Ray grant is a Chicagoan born and raised a south side kid from the Back of the Yards neighborhood. He picked up his first guitar as a teenager for $3, and taught himself how to play. His first 1990 album "It's About Time" earned Grant a Grammy nomination in 1991. Not bad for a self-taught kid from a working-class Chicago neighborhood. His website is raygrantchicago.com , and Ray Grant on Facebook.
