Bio

Detroit city is an urban jungle of hidden gems and artist Rai Knight is no exception. On any given night, you may find her spinning house jams, captivating a crowd with her vocals— you may have even read some of her music reviews via Indie Shuffle under her original moniker Rachel Skotarczyk, but first and foremost Rai Knight is a singer/songwriter.

Rai's roots began with an acoustic guitar, writing and recording her first album on a 4-track tape recorder 2001. With a bit of musical wanderlust, she's interchangeably infused elements of bossanova, folk, outlaw country, blues, pop, R&B and country into her vivid career. Along with solo releases, her unique voice has led to collaborations with producers such as HNQO (under the moniker, bip), Cosmonaut Grechko, Leigh D Oliver, The GTW, The Soundmen and more.

Her work has been supported by Capitol Records, Hot Creations/Hot Waves, OFF Recordings, HookBellboy Records, Large Music and Defected Records.

Her most recent collaboration pairs her with HNQO & Dake and a spirited track called "Obsessed" with recent releases from Leigh D Oliver via Large— a sultry deep house track with a jazz flavor entitled "Girl From The D" and a jackin’ house number called Heat.”

Rai is currently working on an album— a shining example of her folk/outlaw style songwriting. Preview the demos Woodward Sessions below.
