“Rachel
Stone totally captivates audiences with her stellar
voice and engaging patter, singing songs she creates
like a one-woman Rogers and Hart. Her lyrics tease and
tickle, probe and empower, and tumble out over perfectly
woven melodies.”—Ray Korona
"Talented songwriter!”—Bob Blue “Excellent songwriter/performer.”—Rock Albers RACHEL STONE is a satiric topical singer/songwriter whose clever lyric-intensive songs transcend the musical boundaries of cabaret, Broadway and folk. While frequently targeting the Baby Boomer experience and social/political issues, she has also been known to surprise her fans with deep emotional and spiritual songs as well.

A self-proclaimed “Boomer Babe,” Rachel began songwriting to cope with the trauma of reaching midlife, and then started writing political songs to cope with 9/11 and the political aftermath. Her aptly named musical revue, Coping Mechanisms, debuted in 2003. Songs from her Strictly Political CD were used in Jaz Dorsey’s Fun in the White House revue in Nashville.Rachel is producer and host of Community Cabaret in midtown Manhattan (where she also performs), a bi-monthly showcase featuring acclaimed talent from the cabaret, folk music, songwriting and comedy realms since 2003.

Rachel has performed her songs at NYC venues such as People’s Voice Café, 22 Below Cabaret, Don’t Tell Mama, Rose’s Turn, Sweet Caroline, CAMI Hall, the Triad, plus Astoria’s Undercroft Coffeehouse and Long Island’s Peacesmith Coffeehouse.
