I’m ecstatic to share my new album with you. GROUNDED is 20 tracks of soothing songs, mantras, and guided meditations. On December 14, 2020, I will be releasing a short experimental film featuring 11 of the songs. Subscribe to UnoLady.com and I’ll send you news about the release and a free download of one of the meditations.
Typically, when I make a record I would schedule a release show but I’m trying something new. Maybe someday this film will live as an installation, but in the meantime, I wanted to share it virtually, so you can watch safely from the comfort of your own home.
You will be able to stream the release on all platforms and buy the digital album through Bandcamp. Preorders start December 4, 2020, and the full album will be released digitally January 12, 2021 just in time for the new moon. More meditation videos will be released then as well.
Thank you so much for your support. Creating GROUNDED has had such a healing effect on me and I hope to share some of that peace with you.
GROUNDED is supported by the SPACES Urgent Art Fund and by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.

CoolCleveland – “Wed 9/2 @ 8PM Christa Ebert, who performs as Uno Lady, is one of northeast Ohio’s most interesting — and most chameleon artists. Calling herself a “one woman choir,” she makes her music by processing and layering her voice with electronic effects pedals, creating a dense and hypnotically dreamy sound. Her oddball, sometimes surreal, lyrics add to the strangeness of her impact, as does her constantly changing appearance. She’s released several albums, including last year’s Osmosis LP.
Ebert will perform as part of the Maltz Performing Arts Center’s LIVE @ Silver Hall streaming series, which airs a different locally based artist every Wednesday and Sunday. It’s free to tune in. Go here.
Steel Bridge
Spans across the Sturgeon Bay
Links the land
Holds the hand of each shore
Ride on

Bridge the divide
Shore to shore
Steel Bridge Songfest is an annual music festival that brings together songwriters from around the country and the world. SBSF was founded in 2005 to benefit the preservation of Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin’s iconic Michigan Street Bridge. The weeklong event centers around a focused writing and recording collaboration called Construction Zone, culminating in a series of concerts celebrating those new songs, the artists that created them, and the community where they were written.
For the safety of the writers and concertgoers, Steel Bridge has adapted to current risks heading into its 16th year and is moving the whole event online for 2020. A limited, “beta test” run of Construction Zone writing is currently underway thanks to technology!
The weekend concerts normally held at the Third Avenue Playhouse in Sturgeon Bay will be recreated via Facebook Live. Tune in to hear the new songs written this year, tributes to epic songs from SBSF’s 15-year discography, and special performances by Construction Zone writers past and present, all hosted live by musicians from around the country.
Friday, Dec. 13th brings yet another Volar Records showcase, which also marks a double record release for new LPs by Cleveland one-woman experimental-pop artist Uno Lady, and San Diego reformed post-punk band Beating, fka Beaters. Joining the show are the newest Volar signees, psych-post-punk band The Passengers and the operatic queer doom rock of D. Wrex.
