Bella Rayne @ FloydFest 2026

Bella Rayne is a 17-year-old, self-taught guitar phenom from Mendocino, CA who is quickly making a name for herself in the music industry. Her love for the Grateful Dead, psychedelic rock, Southern Rock, 90s grunge, and even a little bluegrass, has been distilled into her own fresh approach. She carries the confidence, poise and talent of someone far beyond her years and this is a big reason why she’s already become a regular guest shredder, sharing the stage with heavy hitters including Melvin Seals & JGB, ALO, Jackie Greene, Oteil Burbridge and members of Terrapin Family in addition to performing as an Artist at Large at several regional festivals. Among her other notable achievements are playing at Oracle Park for SF Giants Grateful Dead appreciation night, features in several publications including Guitar World and earning reputable industry sponsorships including Fender and Ernie Ball. If you need any further affirmation of her star on the rise, she was mentioned as one to watch by her idol, Susan Tedeschi in Guitar World Magazine… Bella Rayne has recently formed her own band, Bella Rayne & Friends, a high energy, guitar-driven ensemble with a revolving lineup of all-star musicians that bring jam band twists to soulful Southern Rock classics plus some originals. Bella Rayne & Friends debuted at the Sweetwater Music Hall in September and have since been in high demand, performing at the Hopmonk Tavern, Crazy Horse Saloon, The David Nelson Band Festival, and Felton Music Hall with more on the horizon. In addition, she also leads a Grateful Dead tribute, Looks like RAYNE, which pays homage to the catalogs of the Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia Band in Bella’s own unique style.
