At just 18 years old, Bella Rayne is already making waves across the jam and rock communities with her fearless guitar tone, raw emotion, and natural stage presence. Entirely self-taught, Bella’s journey began when she discovered an old guitar in her garage during lockdown.

That grunge-rooted edge still informs her style today, even as she channels the expansive spirit of jam and Americana.
