Raymond Bond has had a passion for music since he was 5 years old. His first instrument was the piano, followed up by the alto saxophone, and later the guitar. ​

He completed his music degree at UMass Boston in 2019, followed by a Music Production Certificate from Berklee. He began his composing career immediately upon graduating by working with local animators.

 

Ray also holds a degree in psychology.​ He crafted a thesis on The Intersection of Punk Music & Queer Identity through a community psychology framework. The work was presented at the Northeast Chapter of Ethnomusicology in 2018. It has since been reformed and expanded into a video essay series available on YouTube.
 

In addition to composition, Ray performs in support of local nonprofit organizations and works as a crisis line lead.

​

This website features a variety of music projects composed, produced, and performed by Raymond Bond. Projects are made in the interest of supporting other artists as well as personal and educational growth.
