BOULAY

I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6!



In the moments before the train left the station, Ray stared mercilessly at the parked rail car in front of him. Should he get on that train or shouldn't he? It was a real dilemma. He had no real reason not too. He'd lost his job, his relationship was over and he always talked about taking 'The Trip That Would Change His Life’. It seemed everything he had thought, dreamt or spoke about had lead up to this point, it only made sense; Music is what he wanted to do and to make a life of it. With that God-smack conclusion the engineer blew the whistle and the conductor hollered "All aboard!!" and Ray with his guitar in one hand and a fist full of dreams in the other, boarded the train that would take him towards to his musical life…And that trip still continues.



Ray Boulay: Singer/Songwriter of 10 years hails from Sudbury/Toronto Ontario area but was birthed in BC. Now back on native soil Ray is working on his third album aptly named “West Of Eastward”. As a student of Theatre, Ray uses his stage training to run an entertaining and engaging show.

What's the Buzz About BOULAY?



"I was planning on making it an early night and leave as soon as David Hein got off the stage but the last band, "Boulay" gave me plenty of reason to stay. Front man, Ray Boulay was absolutely captivating and I was amazed by the quality of his voice and the diverse range he sang with. I will definitely be keeping my eye out for this guy."
