Ralph is the self-titled debut EP by Canadian singer-songwriter Ralph. It was released on March 3, 2017 by 604 Records. The EP spawned four singles, "Cold to the Touch", "Something More", "Busy Man" and "Tease".
In 2015, Ralph self-released her debut single "Trouble", which got her noticed by and signed to label 604 Records. [1] She then decided to discard her previous songs and started working on a new project from scratch: "I realized I had been emotionally disconnected to my other tracks because I wasn't really writing them, I was just top lining. This moment fully changed the project and I ditched all my old songs and amicably parted ways with the guy I had been working with."
After releasing four consecutive singles, she finally announced her self-titled debut EP Ralph, which was released on March 3, 2017.[ citation needed ]
