Funnest Facts

I initially started this blog as a way to get to know each other, so I thought this week I would share some extra fun facts that you might not know about me. 

1. I was on Cake Boss two times (proof below) 

2. I sing background vocals on a Goo Goo Dolls song that is currently out, but I won't tell you which one because I'm cryptic. 

3. I dislocated my elbow at gymnastics class in 7th grade by trying to do an ariel - I was far too old and too tall to be in the novice class but we ignore such things.  

4. I was vegan for five years, vegetarian for two, and now have been pescetarian for two. Basically, I have just been regressing slowly. My veganism was proof to myself that it would not be very hard to convince me to join a cult. Love vegans tho. 

5. My first ever concert was Troye Sivan at Webster Hall with LANY as the opener. It was the Blue Neighborhood tour and I didn't know either of their music. But I left and Blue Neighborhood became one of my favorite albums in 6th grade. and ILYSB. I used to be embarrassed about this because my first concert wasn't like Stevie Nicks or some legendary person your parents take you to, but now Troye Sivan is cool so it's ok. 

6. I used to religiously watch Pretty Little Liars every Tuesday. I tried rewatching it recently and the acting was so painful, and I think it gave me nightmares, but nonetheless, I was hooked. 

7. I have the same birthday as Selena Gomez, and I used to think that meant we were supposed to be best friends. 

8. The one time I've ever gotten myself in a car accident, I was listening to Reckless Driving by Lizzy McAlpine and Ben Kessler.

9. I hate oranges. 

10. People didn't really know that I did music until the end of high school, but I was very into sports. I was my basketball team's all-star my junior year of high school. Ball is lyfe. 

Those are all the fun facts I can think of. Hope you found them fun and factual.

Hi Hi Hi (1 Month till Tour)

Hi Guys. 

    Miss You. Feels like we haven't chatted in a bit. Wanted to say hi and update you. If you were just on live with me too, hi. 

    One month until tour with Laufey. Feeling excited to get to share the stage with Laufey, meet new people, and play in beautiful venues. Definitely nervous as well. Been putting pressure on myself to be better, do better, make better, everything. It's motivating. But I'm trying to learn to also just accept good things as good now, and not as things that will be good in the future. 

    I've been writing a lot and beginning to finish music. I'm very proud of the songs I've been writing. Probably the most honest I've ever been in my music. Definitely more mature. I have been thinking about the visual identity for my next stuff too. It's exciting to have a blank slate. There are so many things to be drawn to, and I've been realizing that most of the stuff I like is because of my parents, as are most things. 

    Deleted social media last weekend. It felt good. I'm someone who needs breaks from it. I get stressed about how I'm perceived. Not in my music, but visually. That's the kind of anxiety that happens when you've been on the internet since you were 10. I'm trying to figure out the balance between connecting with the people I love online (reading your dms makes me so so happy) and all the bombardment of stuff I don't need to see. I'll lyk if I ever figure it out. 

    I've been very busy.  Most days, I feel like a chicken running around with my head cut off. Workout, therapy or coffee with a friend (same release, different levels of sound advice), session, sometimes another session, drive around (oh fuck I ran out of gas), social media, see another friend and make dinner, remember there were 5 things I forgot to do that day, read my book (Catcher In The Rye currently) and drift to sleep to do it again tomorrow. I like being busy though. It keeps me sane. 

    Oh, and I've started to watch movies. If you know me, you know I've seen no movies, so this is big for me. Watched Fight Club, Frances Ha, and Lost In Translation. Liked them all for different reasons. Lost in Translation makes me need to go to Japan, but it wasn't my favorite. 

    I feel like I've started a new chapter. Season two, if you will. I've settled a bit into LA. I have my lovely friends. I'm happy and that feels good. 

    Hope you all are great. Can't wait to show you all the good stuff I've been working on. Talk soon. 

    Love you so much, 

    Grace
