Singer/songwriter/guitarist Ray Doyle has contributed to more than a dozen CDs as a longtime member of the popular cowboy and Western band Wylie & the Wild West. He has logged countless miles performing on five continents at venues ranging from the Grand Ole Opry to the Kennedy and Lincoln Centers. Ray has played at national folk festivals and cowboy poetry gatherings, at French rodeos and in Australian wool sheds.

Born in Dublin, Ireland, Ray emigrated with his family to Canada, and eventually settled near Hollywood, California. His newly released second solo CD, “The Emigrant Trail”, celebrates Ray’s Irish heritage, Western music influences and first-hand emigrant experience.

Ray also performs as a solo artist and can be heard in 2009 at the 25th Annual National Cowboy Poetry gathering in Elko, Nevada, and other folk and cowboy festivals around the country.
