Calling all Gracie Abrams fans! Just a few months after the release of “Daughter from Hell,” Abrams is back with a bang.
Abrams is a 27-year-old American singer and songwriter. While her music has blown up in recent years with her album “The Secret of Us,” her discography dates back to 2020.
Her first official release came in 2020 with her EP titled “Minor,” but her first album came in 2023, “Good Riddance.” She was nominated for Best New Artist at the 2023 Grammys, and she made history with the release of her album “The Secret of Us” in 2024. This album includes some of her most popular songs, “I Love You I’m Sorry,” “Us (ft. Taylor Swift),” and “That’s So True.” In 2024, she was nominated for best pop/duo group performance for her song “Us,” which she sang with Taylor Swift. It’s clear that she’s been making a name for herself, and this next release will surely be no different.
Abrams released her 5th album and 3rd studio album, “Daughter From Hell” on July 17, of this year. The album has 16 songs on it that Abrams co-produced alongside Aaron Dessner and Dan Nigro. The lead single of this release, and the one that is blowing up online, is the song “Hit The Wall,” written by Gracie Abrams and Aaron Dessner. In this track, she explores her struggle with life after a breakup: “Thought we’d get married but I guess not, now you can watch me hit the wall.” This song is about her emotions, her patterns, and her past.
Another hit track is the 15th song on the album titled “What If It’s Right.” This is a duet with musician Marcus Mumford, the lead singer of the band Mumford & Sons.
On Oct. 29, Abrams shook the internet and announced the deluxe version of the album. The deluxe edition of the album is coming out Nov. 20, and adds five additional songs. The single of the deluxe version is “Here You Come, There You Go” was a surprise release that Abrams did jointly with her announcement of the deluxe album.
She first performed the new single dressed up as Leonardo DiCaprio’s Romeo from Baz Luhrmann’s “Romeo and Juliet,” when she was the musical guest on the Halloween episode of Saturday Night Live, hosted by Indie Navarette. The five new tracks on the deluxe version are “Here You Come, There You Go,” “Lost In It,” “Crazy Girl,” “Love Letter,” and “Out of Nowhere.”
As with a lot of releases by women, rumors are circulating about who these songs may be about, and many fans are having fun speculating on who her muse may be. There’s a lot of buzz online that her track “Love Letter” may be about her current boyfriend, Paul Mescal.
But so far Abrams newest single “Here You Come, There You Go” is rumored to be about a toxic on-again, off-again romantic relationship that Abrams had, which leaves Abrams confused, sad, and anxious. And when she starts to move on, the partner comes back and wants to be with her again: “Now you’re wanting back in / Your big dramatic feelings / Funny how it happens when I’m good.”
Abrams is also set to go on tour with the “The Look At My Life Tour,” which starts on Dec. 2 of this year and goes until May 28, 2027. The first stop is the Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado, on Dec. 2 and ends at Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona, Spain. There are 64 dates on the tour, with 33 of those dates in the United States.
Whether you’re a Gracie Abrams fan or not, it’s time to explore her discography and memorize these songs before she heads on tour.
