about

HYPNAGOGIA is the newest solo release from Nola Ranallo, who has been composing and performing her own original music for over 20 years. This new collection is mainly constructed from weavings, both dense and fragile, of her voice. Recorded by herself at her home in Buffalo, NY during a vivid period of rehabilitation, growth, and redefinitions - this material came rushing towards Nola in defiance of sleep; in lieu of dream; as guides, as commands.
Some of Earth's greatest artisans helped further her sound and vision, allowing it to flourish into a limited edition of 100 copies pressed onto Vinyl, self-released by Nola on her Moon Mask Records label.

This past September, Nola presented her music live through the lens of a special ensemble created solely to transmit this nightmusic (steeped in BUFFALO SOUND), featuring arrangements written by 5 of her close collaborators.

The musical component was further reinforced by a robust visual element; consisting of new video projections by Filmmaker Jam Vafai, featuring the horses so integral to the musical work, and a new steel sculpture by Artist Craig Sheperd, magnifying the feminine sigil that Nola has been developing over the past 5 years. These two works in tandem created a focal "entrypoint", mirroring the music's initial conveyance to Nola herself.

The live performance instantly sold out and the audio & video documentation from that night is currently being mixed with plans for an immersive release. Nola is continually creating new material and is seeking new ways to connect with audiences and present the material in fresh and creative ways.

Far from being burnt out or treading familiar ground after nearly a quarter century of expression, this new chapter of Nola's work has refined her practice and is allowing her to investigate greater unknowns with confidence.
