My Diary

Bobby Ray Rankin was born in SanDiego California and

moved to Austin Texas in 1987 to pursue a college

degree.  His music career began in 1994 when he was

asked by a friend to help him sing at a VFW hall.

Little did he know what God had in store for him

because that night would catapult him into music

career for the next several years to come.  He’s

played in several bands like  Rain Danc, The Fury,

Shilo and Blue Sunrising. It was during this time he

tried out for the Nashville Star and was a 1st round

winner in Austin Tx. back in 2003. He’s appeared on

radio & television commercials and has entertained for

as many as 10,000 people at the
