Emily Wurramara

Emily Wurramara opens up about the creation of her new album NARA, a project born from the highs and devastating lows of recent years. In this episode of Petroglyph, Emily reflects on the whirlwind of emotions she experienced while traveling the world with her music, giving birth to her daughter, losing her home in a fire, and grappling with mental health struggles. NARA—the Anindilyakwa word for "nothing"—represents the void she felt, but also the realization that from nothing came everything she needed. Co-produced with James Mangohig (aka Kuya James), NARA ventures into new sonic territory, blending pop, electronic, indie, and ambient sounds into her folk roots.    Emily shares the deeply personal stories behind tracks like Magic Woman Dancing and Lordy Lordy (featuring Tasman Keith), each a reflection of her search for peace and resilience amidst chaos.   Her story isn't neatly tied up. The edges remain rough, and the past lingers in ways she’s still learning to process. But there’s growth, and perhaps that’s what matters most.   Subscribe now to stay tuned for weekly episodes of Petroglyph.   Links: Emily Wurramara’s NARA Album - https://www.emilywurramara.com/   Travis De Vries -  Founding Director Tristan Field - Producer/Composer https://www.instagram.com/soundslike____ Thalia Skopellos - Video Producer www.soulsetstudios.com.au   🔗 Subscribe Now - https://www.youtube.com/@awesomeblackstudio Listen on Spotify - https://shorturl.at/DxFnj|    Join the Awesome Black mailing list https://awesomeblack.studio/news/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
