Grace McLean

“Grace McLean [has] one of the most suggestive voices in North America today. Her sophisticated new [music] defies simple classifications, with more layers revealing themselves on repeated listens. Avant-garde pop...brilliant tracks.” —Rolling Stone With her music recently proclaimed by Rolling Stone as, “Brilliant,” by The New York Times as “Phenomenal,” and by The Huffington Post as “Electrifying,” Grace McLean has found her moment. Her debut full-length album My Lovely Enemy is out now on Meridian/ECR Music Group (Sony), following three single releases which have won her an international audience and press coverage on five continents. Much like recording-artist contemporaries St. Vincent, Bjork, and Tune-Yards, McLean pursues both the visceral and intellectual on her new album. “I wrote many of these songs during the reconstruction era after a breakup and they contain the searching, yearning, and fervent meaning-making I found myself chasing during that time,” explains McLean. “These songs are a raucous wake for a love well lived, and a celebration of the barriers pain breaks down that we might rebuild better, and differently.” Produced and recorded by musical polymath Justin Goldner, mixed by Jack DeBoe (Jean Baptiste, Tyler the Creator, Yebba) and mastered by Blake Morgan (Lenny Kravitz, Lesley Gore, Janita), My Lovely Enemy is out now.
