Pre-Order: 2nd - Yellow [Colored Vinyl] (Ylw)

Grace Ives' melodic ideas simply do not leave her alone. She is always singing. Much of her work stems from simple and relatable nuggets of experience. It is almost as if putting her thoughts to a melody are a way of processing the world as she sees it unfold around her. These humble origins of her ridiculously catchy songs are, she says, result of a 'keep it simple, stupid' approach, one that she pulls off with the fire-y confidence of artists such as Bratmobile or Minutemen.As Grace would have it: 'I'm a man of few words, or just the same words over and over again. Everything about me is very laid back, my music is just supposed to be fun, danceable. I write songs so that they get stuck in people's heads. I follow a formula. Butterfly is two notes, Mansion is six. I'm trying to keep it minimal, just so I can get this idea out and listen to it. I just try to crank these out, not so I can do something else, like sleep, drink, or go to a party, but so I can do more. I'm relatable, I shop on a budget, I'm your friend, and I want to write songs for you to dance to. And I'm a great cook-I make a killer bolognese.'
