Rain Bisou

Rina Cervantes, the effortlessly soulful Latin American songstress also known as Rain Bisou, is the most versatile female artist you'll meet in all of Los Angeles. A classically trained soprano since her early teens with an undeniable affection for Jazz, Hip Hop and R&B dating back to early childhood, Rina seamlessly blends her powerful voice into almost any genre, delivering a unique neo-soul flavor as chilling, refreshing, and seductive as a perfect storm. For her debut EP entitled Lucid Dreams ( a collaborative project with Steelo Free, poet, producer, songwriter and lead singer of the South Bay Hip Hop/Reggae band Suspect Ed), Rina showcases her alter ego Rain Bisou with a 90's era Hip Hop production style and laces it with the resurrected nuances of such beloved Pop/R&B divas as Mariah Carey, Mary J Blige, Selena, and Alicia Keys. Lucid Dreams is set for release later this year but the project’s two singles, "When It's Good," and “I’m Ready” are available for viewing now via Youtube. She is also currently working simultaneously on her next albums, one what she dubs “Future R&B” with a bit of a trap flavor, and the other a classic Soul album that is heavily influenced by artists such as Adele, Amy Winehouse, Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles. In addition to maintaining her blossoming career as a soloist, Rina also collaborates with other artists and producers, both in Hip Hop and beyond. More recently, she has been highly active with Beat Chamber Records in producing commercial pop music in English and Spanish. Her work with Beat Chamber has been featured in a Spanish Fanta and Coca Cola commercial. Rina is excited about her recent achievements in the Spanish market and looks forward to more musical opportunities that will showcase both her vocal prowess and her bilingual songwriting abilities. Although Rina's musical talents are clearly evident by simply listening to her records, nothing beats the impact of her live performances. Rina has recently performed the National Anthem both at Staples Center and at Dodgers Stadium, and can also be found performing with her neo-soul/ R&B cover band, The Stonecutters, throughout various venues in Long Beach and the OC. Rina looks forward to her continual success as a bilingual commercial singer and is thrilled for what she perceives to be the imminent success of Lucid Dreams. However, Rina is equally invested in doing public service, especially for youth in socioeconomically disadvantaged communities. She currently holds two substitute teacher positions, both at ABC Unified and at Los Angeles Unified School District, where she educates and inspires children to reach their full academic and creative potential. She also tutors and gives voice lessons to young children and beginners. For Rina, the power of the voice isn't simply about making beautiful music. It is also about stirring the spirit and elevating it to a higher plane of consciousness. As a mother, educator, and most importantly, a creator, Rina is constantly geared toward making a positive impact on her audience, be it in a classroom, for a church congregation or in a stadium filled with cheering sports fans. Rina is destined to rise to the upper echelons of the music industry and will achieve renown by bringing soulfulness back to music as a whole.
