Critics have showered praise upon Ramona, lauding it as Cummings’ most accomplished work yet.

Collaborating with producer Jonathan Wilson, Cummings has crafted an album that embraces rich orchestral arrangements, sultry laments, and bluesy torch songs, showcasing her impressive vocal and emotional range.

The album’s lead single, On And On, accompanied by a hauntingly beautiful video, set the stage for what was to come. Cummings’ theatricality shines through in the title track, inspired by Bob Dylan’s To Ramona, as she embraces a persona filled with intensity and melodrama.

Cummings’ journey as an artist is not confined to the realms of music; she is also an accomplished stage actor. This theatrical influence permeates Ramona,  adding layers of depth and authenticity to her music.

As Cummings prepares to embark on her Australian tour, audiences can expect to be swept away by the grandeur of Ramona. With its visceral reflection on grief and self-destruction, the album offers a profound exploration of humanity in its most raw and beautiful form.

For Cummings, Ramona is not just an album but a testament to her sheer power as a performer, ready to enthrall audiences across the globe.
