Ram Dass’ new EP “The Unimaginable” pulls back the curtain on grieving and healing

SAN FRANCISCO, CA. October 21, 2022  –  With his last EP, ‘And Now He Has Wings’ on the current Grammy® ballot and his songs going viral across Instagram Reels and TikTok, Ram Dass releases ‘The Unimaginable,’ an EP that offers hope in times of strife. These EPs are two sides of the coin of grief and healing.  Written as an expression of the process of learning to face and overcome mortality and grief, this music is raw, real, and profoundly relatable.

Confronting the loss of his newborn son, Ram Dass, a longtime music producer-turned singer-songwriter, reaches out in the universal language of song with a deep understanding of the challenges of being human. ‘The Unimaginable’  is a collection of songs with acoustic guitar and a small backing band of drums, bass, violins, and cellos, that seek to find solace, peace, and happiness amidst heavy turmoil. These exquisite cinematic soundscapes are at once haunting and comforting. Lyrically and sonically poetic, this EP is a balm to the broken heart.

“I experience music both musically and visually.” says Ram Dass. “I have synesthesia so I have a visual experience when I listen to music, and it’s also visceral and all encompassing for me. It’s more than sound essentially, in the way that I experience it. The music on ‘The Unimaginable’ was a really important part of my journey to get to where I am now. I had something to say and though it’s born of tragedy, I wanted to try to say it in a beautiful way, in a way that if it were a painting, it would be exquisite and compelling.”
