If the Covid-19 hadn&#39;t turned the world upside down, <a href="https://www.lofficiel.com/fashion/gracie-abrams" target="_blank">Gracie Abrams</a> would have given her very first concerts in early 2020 - it&#39;s only a postponement. While waiting to be able to go on stage, the young woman of 20 years is polishing her songs and inventing new ones, while continuing to confide in her diary. Writing helps her fight her worries, she explains. When we find her on Zoom, she immediately proves that she is not a navel diva. Empathetic and concerned with her surroundings, Gracie hears from us and takes an interest in the state of France during this crisis. In her music and in her interviews, she has never hidden her convictions. This trait perhaps comes from his upbringing - his father is famous director JJ Abrams and his mother, producer Katie McGrath , was one of the activists behind the Time&#39;s Up movement. &ldquo; I can&#39;t separate my music from my opinions,&rdquo; Gracie remarks. It&#39;s a whole that reflects my way of thinking. You shouldn&#39;t be afraid to talk about what you believe in. I find that very important. &rdquo;After studying for a year in New York, at the very select female university Barnard College, Gracie decided to take a break from her studies and return to LA. In the meantime, she signed with a major to officially release her tracks delicate. We were thus able to discover Stay , Mean It , 21 (produced by Joel Little, who collaborated on Lorde&#39;s two albums), or the tender ballad I Miss You , I&#39;m Sorry . Previously, the apprentice singer posted her compositions on her Instagram page while filming them from her den. Passionate about music since childhood, she wrote her first songs when she was still in high school.

Her chamber pop has won over 379k followers, including Billie Eilish and Lorde . Supreme dubbing: the latter one day sent him a private message asking him for the mp3 of one of these potential hits. Gracie admires them both, but her absolute role model is not quite the same generation: &ldquo; Joni Mitchell, whom my mother listened to all the time, rocked my childhood. As I grew older, I began to listen to her words carefully and to feel that she was more emotional than other artists. I then understood that music could be an incredible outlet and it made me want to create myself. I like her simplicity, she only needs her voice and an instrument. In turn, I wanted to compose from a piano or a guitar, building everything around it without ever losing sight of this central core. For me, a song should be able to perform with the bare minimum. &ldquo;When we talk to her about fashion, she also cites the style of this legendary Canadian singer and takes her analysis a little further. &ldquo;I see things happening on social networks that can inspire me or challenge me. A year ago, I felt more intimidated, but today I have gained confidence and above all I have learned to accept myself as I am. Since my year in New York, I&#39;ve been going for clothes that help me feel comfortable and happy. What matters to me in fashion is what it makes me feel, more than the visual effect! &ldquo;

This substantive over form victory, which several figures of modern pop share, shows the dynamism of this new generation which restores confidence in the future. Gracie is optimistic: &ldquo;A lot of people my age appreciate the power they have to make things happen.&rdquo; Tomorrow is theirs.
