Today's Video Share: "My Beautiful Dear" by Raina Krangle

Canadian folk/rock with a twist of country, this is Raina’s 5th release. “My Beautiful Dear” was a finalist in the Blues & Roots Songwriting Competition before its official release on March 20, 2020. Its storytelling lyrics draw on her parents’ 54-year-long love story and her childhood in a house where Bruce Cockburn’s “All the Diamonds” was the harmonized lullaby of choice. But to understand why “My Beautiful Dear” is even more poignant to Krangle, is to know it stems from her recovery from a traumatic brain injury (TBI) just under a year ago. The result is Headbangers — A Musical Recovery From Mild Traumatic Brain Injury, an 8-track odyssey completed in just 5 months’ time. Release date with artistic journal is planned for Summer 2021. Many of Raina’s songs like “Passing Me By” & “Needle in the Hay” have been in the top 10 on Women of Substance Radio.
