I've seen Jeff Ray described as a country artist. There are a couple songs here that land under country. Most of this, though, is more straightforward rock music. The closest connection is probably John Mellencamp, but more the rock side of his sound. However you label this, though, it's a good EP with some strong tunes. It's not the most original thing you'll hear, but it's quite effective.
