Wish Queen Saturnalia
"Mystical and moving, Wish Queen (a.k.a Cleveland-based singer/songwriter Grace Sullivan) takes the intangible feelings of desire and yearning (wishing), and transforms them into gorgeous melodies, ranging from danceable pop to deliciously introspective ballads you'd love to sit alone and cry to. Blending her rich classic vocals and long hidden poetry with layered reverb and synth-based production styles, Wish Queen transports her listeners to a myriad of times and places all at once. Drawing inspiration from various Queens that came before her, including Billie Holiday, Joni Mitchell, Fiona Apple, Lana Del Rey, Weyes Blood, and Ethel Cain, Wish Queen has created a unique sweet spot that is all her own, and invites you to immerse yourself in her dream world. A hypnotic blend of dream pop, art pop, and indie folk, Wish Queen's debut album, “SATURNALIA,” explores earthly cycles, heartbreak, and coming of age via Saturn Return. Recorded mostly in a garage in the summer of 2022, "SATURNALIA" is a true diamond in the rough, complete with breathtaking layers of synths, powerfully intuitive vocal harmonies, and a meticulously crafted hidden narrative. “SATURNALIA” is set to be released on all streaming platforms on October 27, 2023. If you're looking for a sound that's been compared to Stevie Nicks meets Beach House, this music is for you. Make a wish."
