Ella Thompson invites you to join her for the launch of the stunningly soulful new album Ripple on the Wing on Saturday February 8th at the Night Cat.

Helping her celebrate this auspicious occasion are very special guests: instrumental funk icons The Pro-Teens and Naarm’s esteemed soul queen, and rare soul collector, Miss Goldie.

Echoing 1960s lowrider love songs and sweet-soul anthems with haunting cinematic arrangements, Ripple on the Wing is a sweet & spooky modern take on classic soul music.

Ella's lyrics explore themes of belonging, both to the microscopic & the universal. She invites listeners to contemplate the vast expanse of human emotion and the interconnectedness of all things. The album is backed by an impeccable band featuring members of Surprise Chef alongside other local soul luminaries.
