Following first single ‘On and On’, rising Australian star Grace Cummings releases ‘Common Man’, the second track taken from her upcoming album Ramona, due out April 5 via ATO Records / [PIAS]. The bluesy, Western-infused track boasts powerful vocals from Grace while grappling with her desire to be more than the common man.
Of the song, Grace says :“This song is about being a colourful bird and never, ever wanting to be a pigeon. Somebody I used to know wrote a song called common man about working nine to five and coming home and having a cup of tea and going to bed and it made me want to have a fucking panic attack. I wish I could tell people it was about riding off into the distance on the back of a white horse with a Cowboy in Austin Texas, but it’s not.”
