Umberlune: Pretty Little Bones
"Raised in both Montreal and Ottawa, indie singer-songwriter umberlune now calls Perth, Ontario home. The small town inspired her first single, Ghosts of 1816, which tells the story of the early residents of Perth.
Recorded and mixed by producers John Innes and Nicholas Boone at Vibration Studios Inc. (Osgoode) and TrenchAudio (Arnprior), then mastered by Ottawa’s Phillip Victor Bova, Pretty Little Bones is an Ontario album that doesn’t need big city slick to capture your attention. The songs draw stylistically from multiple genres, including folk, blues and rock. Nuanced guitar makes way for stirring vocals. The stories are rich, lyrical vignettes that go deep and then stick around for a while. At times dark or melancholy, often whimsical and always honest, these songs are undeniably relatable. You’ll catch yourself humming them days later!
Pretty Little Bones marks, in some ways, a bit of a broadening from the solo acoustic sound that umberlune developed over a decade ago. Half the songs on the album are full band arrangements featuring electric guitar, bass and drums, provided by the aforementioned producers and Perth drummer, Corey W. Lonesome. Ghosts of 1816 also features Perth’s Town Crier, Brent McLaren, and award-winning Ottawa bagpiper, Matt Shepheard!
Pretty Little Bones is available on all streaming platforms, CD, and (coming soon) vinyl"
