Description
Ella Thompson’s new record Ripple on the Wing is a soaring 10 song collection – a sweet and spooky modern take on classic soul music. With echoes of 1960’s Girl Group love songs and suitably haunting cinematic arrangements, Ella blends songs of self-realisation and personal empowerment with classic themes of love and longing.
Backed by an impeccable band featuring members of Surprise Chef alongside other Melbourne soul luminaries, Ripple on the Wing’s production palette is an intoxicating blend of the acoustic and amplified – with harpsichord, piano and flute melding with classic funky drums, organ, guitar and sweet vocal harmonies.
Ripple On The Wing is co-produced by Ella, Liam McGorry (Ex-Olympian, Dorsal Fins, Saskwatch) and Henry Jenkins (Karate Boogaloo), with Henry at the controls both in the recording process and the mix.
This is a future classic.
