Teni Rane

Inside of Teni Rane’s songs, you’ll likely encounter Appalachian songbirds, white oaks, and wildflower fields. These are just some of the earthly delights that surround her home and dance through her music. As a songmaker, Rane likes to wade in the undertow, through the deeper currents of loneliness and longing that churn below the surface of our days. An intense (over)thinker, her songs ask questions about what makes a home and how we discover our place in the world. As she tracks the wooden acres and water lines around her, Rane is learning how to turn inward and listen to her own artistic calling. After spells in Arkansas, Sweden, and Northeast Tennessee, she's returned to her roots - the county where she was raised, where the city meets the country along the Tennessee River in Chattanooga, TN.
