Arizona Dranes

Arizona Dranes (1905 (?) – 1960 (?)) was one of the first gospel artists to bring the Sanctified musical styles of Holiness churches' religious music to the public in her records for Okeh and performances in the 1920s. She introduced piano accompaniment to Holiness music, which had previously been largely a cappella, and accompanied herself in the barrelhouse and ragtime styles popular at the time.

Born blind in Dallas, Texas around 1905, she grew up in the Church of God in Christ in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. She began recording in 1926, first as a solo artist and later with choirs and various other artists and groups. Although she last recorded in 1928, she continued touring through the 1940s. Later gospel artists, such as Roberta Martin and Clara Ward, were heavily influenced by her piano playing; Dranes' nasal singing style also had an impact on artists such as Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
