GRACEY announces new EP with break-up anthem "What A Waste"
GRACEY has delivered new break-up anthem "What A Waste" today, which is accompanied by news of her upcoming EP Fragile.
"What A Waste", produced by J Moon and Siba, follows GRACEY's April outing "Got You Covered", and is the first taster of her forthcoming EP Fragile.
"I wrote "What A Waste" in the first raw moments of a recent break-up, when all I felt was the initial loss," explains GRACEY. "Everyone goes through that gut punch of disappointment and frustration at the beginning, when you’re looking back at the time, love and energy you put into something that no longer exists and you feel like you wasted your time. Luckily it’s just a moment that passes and there’s lots to look forward to on the other side, but those initial emotions are still valid. Hopefully this will help others going through something similar."
Speaking about her Fragile EP, GRACEY continues, "This EP is a collection of songs I’ve written during the first (and most fragile) stage of my recent break-up. With some of my rawest thoughts and feelings, it quite literally feels like a four song diary entry at this point. I can’t lie, putting my emotions out in the world like this does make me nervous, but I know that when you’re scared to put something out it’s good, as it means it’s come from a real place that people will connect with. And when everything boils down, that’s really what it is about for me."
GRACEY adds, "I find there’s a lot of pressure to be ‘happier’ post break-up, almost as a way of proving to yourself that you’re better without them, so I wanted to play on the idea in the EP through the upbeat, synth-led productions, which juxtaposes the sad, heartbreak lyrics, with artists like Robyn being a huge influence. One of the main things I’ve realised through writing this EP is that to be vulnerable is to be fucking brave. It means finally allowing yourself to feel and heal properly. To be fragile is to be strong. I’m really proud of this work, and I’m excited for this next step of my journey."
