Lane McCray


Lane McCray is an American singer, songwriter, rapper and entertainer best known for fronting the famous '90s eurodance act La Bouche.
He was stationed in Germany and Turkey with the United States Air Force. As an all-around entertainer in the USA, Lane performed in regional musical theater productions of West Side Story, A Chorus Line, Tom Foolery, Sophisticated Ladies and La Bohème.
McCray left the USAF to pursue his musical career full-time. It was in Saarbrücken, Germany where he met Melanie Thornton when they fronted the cover band Groovin' Affairs, going on to form La Bouche.
After Thornton died in a 2001 plane crash while promoting a re-release of her solo album "Ready to Fly", McCray shied away from the limelight and took some time to mourn the death of his friend and partner. As of 2015, Lane began working with Hungarian-born singer Sophie Cairo.
He devotes some of his time to those living with HIV/AIDS through local, national, and international foundations. Giving back is a huge part of who he is and is always looking for opportunities to do just that.
Lane is the son of Lane McCray Sr. and Joyce McCray, brother of Doreen and Deidre and father of Shannon Breonna McCray and glampop to Hamza Ishmael.
In September 2016, Lane is set to release a brand new La Bouche single with subsequent tracks to follow to the release of a complete new CD from the group.
Lane resides in Germany, in Otterburg, where he has taken up painting as an inspiration and currently has an art gallery.
