Ora Cogan - Hard Hearted Woman (Cloudy Clear Vinyl)
type: Product
description: Cloudy Clear Vinyl Ora Cogan's music is alchemical: part instinct, part ritual, and always born from the edges where life feels sharpest. Hard Hearted Woman, her debut for Sacred Bones, arrives as a spell for anyone trying to stay wild in a world that keeps hardening.
