Grace’s music is described as a little bit of folk, a little bit of country/americana, and a whole lot of soul. Grace is the winner of many of the nation’s most prestigious songwriting contests, including NPR’s Mountain Stage New Song Contest, and has received grants from the Buddy Holly Educational Foundation. Grace’s songs have been recorded by other esteemed artists, including Sara Hickman and Ruthie Foster, with 3 co-writes on Foster’s latest, Grammy-nominated album, Healing Time (2024).

Grace is an official showcasing artist at SXSW and Folk Alliance this year (2024). She has independently released three acclaimed records and signed with MPress records in 2020. Her 2021 album was produced by lauded singer-songwriter Mary Bragg, mixed by 2x Grammy award winner Shani Ghandi, and featured an all female/non-binary band and creative credits. Guest contributions came from Indigo Girls, Ruthie Foster, and Dar Williams, including other luminaries. Summer 2024 will see the release of Grace’s next album.
