Whispers from the Edge: Bog Witch’s “Meet Me” Delivers a Lament for a Crumbling World

Wendy DuMond, the artist behind Bog Witch, doesn’t just write songs, she crafts emotional landscapes. With “Meet Me,” released May 26, 2025, she offers a gentle, haunting protest wrapped in ambient melancholy. This isn’t a track that demands your attention with volume, it seeps into your bones with its quiet intensity, like the last light of dusk slipping below a burning horizon.

The production is spare but immersive. DuMond’s electric guitar shimmers with restraint, drifting through gauzy layers of synths and bass like smoke curling through a ruin. Mike Gruwell’s percussion is subtle yet effective, each beat feels like a heartbeat slowed by grief. You don’t just listen to this track; you float through it, carried by a current of mourning and unspoken resilience.

It’s not overtly political, but the emotional weight says it all: this is music for the moments when words fail and only feeling remains. There’s a sense of intimacy here, like a final embrace before the world changes forever. Co-produced by Don Sechelski and mastered by Sid Hagan, “Meet Me” resonates with a cinematic tension, quiet but undeniable.

Bog Witch doesn’t offer answers. What “Meet Me” offers is connection. In a world unraveling at the seams, DuMond invites us to pause, feel, and simply meet her,heart to heart, soul to soul.
