🎸 Near-death experience fuels Columbus band's spiritual rock revival. "Weird Feathers," the debut album from Did'ja, emerged after frontman Tim Ramage survived a 10-minute death from electrocution that permanently altered his voice. The album blends faith-inspired lyrics with shapeshifting sounds, as Ramage's recent conversion to Catholicism infuses the songwriting process he describes as divinely guided. The band embraces imperfections and "happy mistakes" in their recording approach, creating music that feels like a collective shaking off of COVID isolation's stillness. Their record release show is scheduled for September 12 at Rumba Cafe.
