Songs in Red and Gray is the sixth studio album by American singer-songwriter Suzanne Vega.

On Songs in Red and Gray, Vega returns to her signature acoustic folk-pop sound, shedding the experiments she had done in the 1990s with her husband, record producer Mitchell Froom.

[2] New producer Rupert Hine shows some traces of his past work with '80s new wave bands by employing electronic beats,[4] but mostly allows Vega's voice and guitar to dominate in a manner reminiscent of her debut album and its 1987 follow-up, Solitude Standing.

[2][4] Most of the songs, like "Widow's Walk" and "If I Were a Weapon", deal with the dissolution of Vega's marriage with Froom.

[2][4][8] Her "calm, hushed, clear singing"[2] belies the album's "mood of heartbroken defiance".
