Grace Cummings - Ramona (Green & Cream Splatter Vinyl LP)
Ramona is a work of raw truth rendered in its most resplendent form. In a departure from the self-produced approach of her 2019 debut Refuge Cove and its 2022 follow- up Storm Queen—an LP whose abundant praise came from the likes of MOJO, who noted that Cummings “unleashes her psyche in a voice of throaty, Diamanda Galás-style intensity”—the Melbourne-based artist worked with producer Jonathan Wilson and dreamed up a lavishly orchestrated sound that fully accommodates the depth and scope of her vocal prowess. With its visceral reflection on grief and self- destruction and emotional violence, Ramona brings a stunning new grandeur to Cummings’ music while refusing to soften or temper its unbound humanity. Recorded at Wilson’s Fivestar Studios, Ramona came to life in collaboration with a stacked lineup of musicians that includes harpist Mary Lattimore and string arranger/multi-instrumentalist Drew Erickson (Weyes Blood, Mitski, Lana Del Rey).
