Mia Ramo – Mud on Your Boots

Mia Ramo is a new face to the UK Country scene. And she has opted for a classic trope as part of her debut offering. ‘Mud on Your Boots’ is a typical cheating song. The lies unfolding to leave sadness, heartbreak, hurt and exasperation in their wake. Ramo weaves a simple story of how signs like “the smell of perfume and cheap red wine” feed the growing doubt around the stories and excuses told. Until eventually “I’ll leave you this time” because the evidence is overwhelming. The electric and slide guitars ensure that the pain of such experience is at the forefront. Mia Ramo opting not for an ass-kicking but rather quietly-enraged take on the breakdown of a relationship. Such emotion keenly felt on a track that represents a promising start for this aspiring singer-songwriter.
