This week’s Feature Album is Storm Queen, the highly acclaimed sophomore release from Melbourne-based singer, songwriter, and producer Grace Cummings.

True to its title, Storm Queen is a body of work with its own unruly climate, governed only by the visceral quality of Cummings’ spellbinding and devastating vocal presence.

With most songs captured within the first few takes and featuring unexpected flourishes by Cummings’ peers in Melbourne, the album showcases a vast and volatile emotional landscape from one of the most captivating folk artists to enter the scene in years. 

Storm Queen is out now via Sugar Mountain Records/Virgin Music Australia. Sign up to the PBS enewsletter for a chance to win a copy of the album. Not a PBS member? Join now for your chance to win.
