Melbourne-based singer-songwriter Grace Cummings is one of the scene’s most commanding and powerful voices. An enigmatic and captivating live performer, Cummings was first introduced to audiences in 2019 with her impactful debut release Refuge Cove – an album that positioned the artist as a name to watch.
A performer who has drawn influence from artists such as Townes Van Zandt, Lucinda Williams and Bob Dylan, Cummings’ music exists within a musical space that is rich in magnetism, thematic strength and emotional intelligence. Her albums Storm Queen (2022) and Ramona (2024) have provided insight into Cummings’ intricate and intense brand of storytelling, while also demonstrating her expanding sound and approach to musicality. Ramona, nominated for the Australian Music Prize, proved a stand out album in 2024 – whichever direction Cummings finds herself travelling down in 2025, no doubt the scene will be tuned all the way in.
