Alan Ray

Alan "Jam" Ray - Bass Guitar

Alan began his musical career as a drummer at the age of nine.   He continued as a drummer for 40 years with bands including Lazzer, Last Chance Band, Destiny, Pop Rouge, Squeeze, Kenny Fife, Joe Landry and The Southland Band, Kane Glaze and The Coozan Band, and The Coozan Band, just to name a few.
At the age of 13, Alan became interested in playing bass guitar, with Philip Braud and Gary “Snake” Templet (the original bass player for Na Na Sha) as influences in the art of bass playing.  
Alan enjoys writing songs and has written a few with Kane Glaze and Coozan, including “Eternity”, “Your Eyes”, and “Someone Special”.
Alan thanks his wife, children and family members for their support in his musical career.  Joining Na Na Sha is an exciting addition to his musical repertoire.
