The brand new single from the Paul Dempsey solo album, Ramona Was A Waitress is going to be released on July 24 in physical CD format in a very limited edition which will also feature his cover of Bette Davis Eyes and 2 exciting re-mixes. As this release is so limited, to ensure you get your copy, you can pre-order the single now from JB Hi Fi.




Thursday, June 18, 2009 
We are very excited to announce the release of the second single from the forthcoming Paul Dempsey solo album, Everything is True. Titled 'Ramona Was A Waitress', this track is a complete contrast to the stripped back acoustic sparseness of 'Out the Airlock'.  A pounding meditation on artificial intelligence, love, death and robots, 'Ramona' sees Paul manning all  instruments led by a driving mechanical pulse into a beautiful piano-driven chorus that carries you away somewhere else entirely. 

 Ramona arrives digitally via itunes on the 3rd of July, and then as a very limited edition CD single with 3 exclusive b-sides (including Paul's much talked about cover of the Kim Carnes classic, Bette Davis Eyes') instore on the 24th of July.
