This is the output of a session bass player and composer that thinks too much.
Prudence (moniker of Tom Crandles -Au.Ra) lays an idiosyncratic vision, a strange journey into a world that is heavy and addictive. The pieces are electric yet effortless; a natural disaster of dissonance and melody, drawing on his own tragic comedy and capturing vagaries from relationships to addictions; euphoria, ache, uncertainty, joy and bitterness are all expressed within the constraints of these infectious songs.
Prudence’ ‘Major Tom EP’ was recorded by Tom, alone in Margate, Kent.
Delicate and bold, the six tracks on ‘Major Tom’ are an amalgamation of all things holy and sinister.

I first heard their other band Colours on Free Loving Anarchists and loved that record so I checked out Au.Ra, this album is great start to finish hard to pick a favorite. Nathan B Ingleby

This Nashville group draws on the classic sound of ’80s goth and gloom pop to create swirling songs with stately keys and haunting melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 27, 2021
Situationist coldwave from France that is deliciously icy, high-drama vampire vocals colliding with icy synth & guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 7, 2021
