Watch CRAY Perform Haunting Live Cover of “Fractions”

Not many artists are able to transform from barnstorming DJ to vulnerable songstress, but CRAY does it with the grace of seasoned vet.

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL HARDFEST 2021 happened this weekend for the first time in two years, with an expanded venue size and a stacked lineup of electronic, rap and pop acts.
