Folk newcomer Ella Grace embraces heartache on new single "Here We Are Again"
Folk singer/songwriter Ella Grace makes a delectable debut with her new single "Here We Are Again".
The track is a bittersweet ode to a more sombre time where Grace found herself journeying onwards from a love lost to depression. The delicate plucking of her guitar tugs at the heartstrings whilst the earnest timbre of her vocal is evocative of the pain she felt at that point in her life.
"I called your name but nobody came," she sings with an almost matter-of-fact clarity, without proposing blame for the subsequent heartache to follow. In keeping with the personal dialogue of the track, Grace incorporated birdsong recorded at the cottage she grew up in and returned to, the surroundings becoming synonymous with this point of her life.
"There are so many subtle elements in all of my songs that make them meaningful to me, and I have a feeling that people, maybe without even realizing it, are left feeling my music pretty deeply because of this," Grace explains of the universal nature of "Here We Are Again". "I think sometimes we have to let go of love, and not always because the love is lost, sometimes it’s because the people in it have lost themselves."
