RY X

RY X seeks connection. Connection to nature, to his emotions, to his body, to other people. On his fourth, transcendental solo album, ‘Blood Moon’, the Australian musician delves into what drives these attachments – the ways in which we move through the world – in songs that serve as the apotheosis of his artistic expression. ‘Blood Moon’ is an extraordinary, multi-faceted work. Across 13 beautifully arranged songs, the singer born Ry Cuming assesses the relationships he’s experienced over the years, writing from a place that is, clearly, incredibly personal to him.

‘Blood Moon’ is an album that sees RY X very organically breaking new ground while maintaining the authenticity of his artistry. It ventures boldly into uncharted territory, with new palettes of sounds and fresh production flourishes, but retains the raw honesty that has established a powerful connection with an international fanbase. It was recorded in Topanga, deep in the Santa Monica mountains. Embracing the beauty of the location, he’d work by day and by night, breaking only to explore the mountains at sunset. It was also a time of creative solitude as RY X wrote, produced and played almost everything that features on the album.
