Rafter is the performing name of the American musician and producer Rafter Roberts. He also owns his own studio, Singing Serpent, in San Diego, California, United States.
In 2005 he formed the project Bunky together with Emily Joyce. The name is a combination of the words "bunny" and "monkey" while they released one album, Born To Be A Motorcycle (Asthmatic Kitty, 2005).
In January 2019 he started a megaseries of Rafter releases with the album Terrestrial Extras and set a release schedule of a new Rafter album every month for the duration of the year.
