Graace bowled me over with her heartbreakingly honest EP Self Sabotage last year. She’s back with “Have Fun at Your Party,” a track that picks up where she left off with its aching intimacy.
I love the way this track combines electronic and pop influences. But it’s the lyrics and heartfelt delivery that really strike a chord. It’s so vulnerable and raw, everything I loved about her earlier material with perhaps a little extra polish.
“I was ‘dating’ someone when I started writing this. We went a lot of the first few months together trying to deny how we felt about each other, constantly pushing one away then pulling them back,” she explained. “I wanted the listener to picture me drinking all night because I couldn’t stop thinking about them while they were out, because at the end of the day I was head over heels.”
After spending the last month touring in the United Kingdom and Europe, Graace is in fine form. She has several local shows coming up, including a pair of launch shows celebrating her latest single release.
