Singer, songwriter from Italy. I love British music,  starting from the sixties to the late nineties, when everything seems to be over, who knows why ? nevermind :)

Raleigh Rye is a country blues guitar and piano player, singer and native of Southern California.


He has been fortunate to spend time living and playing music in such cities as Austin TX, Nashville TN, New Orleans, LA and Greenwich Village NYC.

In each of these cities he has cultivated a repertoire with the local musical stylists, sharing stages and performing across the South-West and North-East of the US.
 
Raleigh has spent the last 8 years living in London, England, playing on the festival and club circuit in the UK (including a 6 month stint living with The Pogues’ leader Shane McGowan above a North London pub). Here, he got signed with Universal Records under the name Dempsey and he released the critically acclaimed album Sunrise/Sunset produced by London based folktronica mix merchant Four Tet.

Since then Raleigh has come back to the traditional styles of the American South and has been putting the finishing touches on his self produced LP titled Raleigh Rye.

The album is inspired by writers of American Southern literature from the 1920s and 1930s. The recordings include members of such bands as Morrissey, Tom Jones, Mystery Jets and various west country instrumentalists.


In live shows, in addition to his original songs, Raleigh covers traditional artists such as: Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Mississippi John Hurt, JJ Cale, Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, Towns Van Zant, Hank Williams, The Grateful Dead, The Rolling Stones, The Everly Brothers, Bukka White, Bob Dylan, The Band and many more.

"I'm never one to question the whys and wherefores coming through radio airwaves on a hot Louisiana night. But somewhere through the static at the far end of the car radio dial...As I lit a cigarette and took a drag, mingling with my dreams forgotten and loves lost, I hear Raleigh Rye, Skull and Bone Rag."

Sergio Cabrera’s influence has been making a big impact on dance floors since the underground rave scene of the early 90’s. Sergio made a name for himself on his native island of Tenerife showcasing new beats and regularly playing before cheering crowds of Old Skool Hardcore, Jungle and Drum and Bass devotees. From humble beginnings playing rundown warehouses and back gardens, Sergio’s popularity quickly won him residencies for Tenerife’s most iconic clubs, playing a mix of UK Garage, 2 Step and Speed Garage. Making the move to London, UK, Sergio soon became resident DJ at N1 Leicester Square, Pacha London and the infamous Polarise nights, playing side by side with Daniel Brosnan, Dom Chevez, Philips and George, Marky D, Remedy, Sonny Wharton, Trophy Twins, Filthy Rich, Hoxton Whores, Ratpack and Slipmatt (SL2) to name a few. 

From pulling international crowds to their feet in Tenerife at Paradise Club, Busby’s and Bobby’s, El Establo and the Joyce Bar, Sergio moved permanently to London to pursue his passion for audio engineering. He studied at the world famous SAE institute and went on to record, edit and mix for documentary and fashion film soundtracks. He has released tracks with labels like Madison Square Records, Monkey Show Records and ExperimentalBass Records. With airplay on radio stations like Essentialclubbers and Renegade FM, Sergio’s music style is diverse, encompassing everything from Old Skool Hardcore, Drum and Bass and Jungle to Funky House, Electro Tech House, House and Breakbeat.

Sergio’s undeniable flare for mixing Old Skool Hardcore with new and exciting beats has seen him develop a music portfolio that exemplifies his wealth of knowledge that is intrinsically tied to his musical roots in the heyday of rave culture. However firmly rooted his sound might be, it hasn’t stopped Sergio from exploring exciting new territories as a dance music artist.
Staying true to his innate curiosity and persistent obsession for advances in software applications, Sergio has evolved into a multi-genre producer offering an almost painterly palette of sounds and interesting mixes. His acute sense of hearing and attention to detail filters the subtle changes of a polyphonic composition, complementing his versatility and vast technical knowledge. 
The inquisitive mind of this young Spanish producer has drawn him to explore the direct psychological and physiological responses associated with compositional frequencies, leading him down the path of psychoacoustics and sound installations. As of now, Sergio has only scratched the surface of his musical possibility as he continues to dive into the creative depths of music production to develop a sonic language of his own. He has set out on a mission to stimulate our brains and expand our perceptual responses in ways that will take our receptors on a next-level musical journey. We eagerly await his upcoming work.

“Creating music in a studio is great as you know it will create a response - a feeling - when it’s heard, but nothing compares the immense feeling of joy I get from playing in front of a crowd that goes wild at the movement of my fingertips.”

- Sergio Cabrera
