Perspective
The Bonners' father is a Christian minister and musician who encouraged their music early on while growing up in Pennsylvania. When older brother Jesse started college, the siblings began performing together. He formed a band with a friend who eventually dropped out of the group, after which the siblings formed Bonray in 2014. The name is a combination of their name "Bonner" and "ray", which they said in a 2017 interview symbolizes the light of hope they hope to bring through their music.[1]
The band released their debut EP Turn My Eyes on Provident Label Group/Sony Music, with the first single and title track co-written with Jonathan Smith (of Zach Williams and We Are Messengers) and produced by Bryan Fowler (of TobyMac and Mandisa).[2][3] The song was featured on the Billboard Christian Airplay charts, peaking at #26.[4]
Bonray has toured with Colton Dixon, NEEDTOBREATHE, and Matt Maher, Finding Favour[5] and are currently on tour with Sidewalk Prophets[6] for the spring of 2018. They have also posted cover versions to YouTube of songs by TobyMac, NEEDTOBREATHE, Danny Gokey, and Justin Timberlake.[7]
Their song "Good Life" has been used in the television series Imaginary Mary and in the Netflix series Fuller House,[8] while "Wildfire" was used in the film Overcomer and its soundtrack.
