“Did’ja Overcomes Covid Isolation with Transformative ‘Weird Feathers'”

Columbus-based band, Did’ja, is preparing to launch its transformative new record, “Weird Feathers,” in a live performance at Rumba Cafe on September 12th. The debut album marks a significant evolution for the group, particularly for lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter, Tim Ramage.

Ramage’s journey towards “Weird Feathers” was one of profound change, both spiritually and musically. Notably, Ramage underwent a spiritual awakening, converting to Catholicism, which heavily influenced the lyrical content of the album. Furthermore, his process of reinvention extended to his musical endeavors, manifesting in new approaches to his guitar playing and vocal delivery. Ramage’s vocal transformation, in particular, was a consequence of a near-death experience in 2012 when he was electrocuted. The event left his voice with a unique gravelly quality that pushed him to explore and experiment with different vocal techniques to redefine his sound.

Reflecting on this metamorphosis, Ramage shared insights on his journey towards redefining his musical identity and expressed how his experiences, both on a personal and artistic level, shaped the creation of “Weird Feathers.” Teaming up with bandmate, Casey Cooper, Ramage delved into the intricate process of reshaping his voice and musical style to embrace newfound perspectives and creative outlets.

The culmination of these transformations can be found in the innovative and eclectic tracks that make up “Weird Feathers.” The album promises a fusion of Ramage’s introspective and faith-driven lyrics with the band’s unique sound, creating a dynamic and compelling listening experience for fans old and new. The release of the record signifies a significant milestone for Did’ja, showcasing their growth and willingness to explore new horizons in their musical journey.

To commemorate the release of “Weird Feathers,” Did’ja will take the stage at Rumba Cafe, offering fans an opportunity to witness the band’s evolution firsthand. The concert is set to be a celebration of artistry, resilience, and creativity, encapsulating the spirit and essence of Did’ja’s transformative musical odyssey. By embracing change and reinvention, Did’ja sets the stage for a captivating and unforgettable musical experience that will resonate with audiences and leave a lasting impression for years to come.
