Fr. Ray was born in Tyrrellspass, Co. Westmeath in April 1953. In April 2014, Fr.Ray sung a personalised version of Leonard Cohen’s Song, Hallelujah, for Chris & Leah O’Kane on their Wedding day. The wedding was recorded on video and the song was put on YouTube where it has reached 58 million hits! He has performed globally to packed audiences. One of Fr. Ray’s ambitions is to have a series of concerts around Ireland and hopes to bring that to fruition over the next year or two.
