Biography

Instead of simply making a record, Grace Gaustad made their own world. The 19-year-old singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer magnifies their message on tape, on-screen, and beyond. After a lifetime obsessed with music, Grace first made waves with a 2018 piano and vocal take on Hozier's "Take Me To Church." Posting up 25 million-plus views, they carried this momentum into the Human EP before dropping their Welcome to Jupiter 1.0 EP in 2021. It incited the adoration of a growing fan community and attracted critical praise from the likes of Wonderland Magazine who observed, "Gaustad's approach to music is defined by a determination and passion that would see them going places, and that's exactly what it has done."

Now, through their independent full-length debut, "BLKBX: wht r u hding?," they present a multi-faceted, multi-dimensional, and multi-sensory world where all are welcome. The music only serves as the gateway as they widen the scope of this place with an accompanying video for each song, culminating in the BLKBX film releasing later this year. At the same time, a poem corresponds to every track, and they invite further immersion via the YouTube series "BLKBX: The Therapist Speaks." As a multimedia curator, they actively maintain a safe haven for a generation beset with anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, uncontrolled emotions, and tendencies to self-harm. Generating tens of millions of streams and receiving acclaim from Nylon, American Songwriter, Pollstar, and more, Grace Gaustad opens up this place for anyone who needs it in 2021.

Grace is represented by Red Light Management and STATUS PR.
