World of Women is the track you never thought you’d hear from Ace of Wands. It's a dark and eerie waltz; the lyrics probe the rules of attraction, female romance, and the heartbreak of empathy.
Lead singer Lee Rose's classical violin background is the foundation for this Baroque-inspired track, with violins and violas weaving around a dance of lockstep drums and ghostly voices. Lee composed and performed notated and improvised strings parts, while the drums, guitar, and synth bass maintain a basso continuo. World of Women was written during Ace of Wands’ residency at the Banff Center for Arts and Creativity, and it channels the beautiful drama of winter in the Rocky Mountains with a striking lament.
World of Women shows off a different, more intimate side of Ace of Wands – a contrast to their typical explosive and cathartic performance style. Released via Fortune Stellar Records, World of Women is available digitally for the first time--it was previously only available on vinyl as the secret track on Ace of Wands' 2023 album Desiring.
