Grace Turner plays a final hand for 2018 with gutsy end-of-year single ‘Easy I Fall’, a fierce progression from her previous heart-stopper ‘Dead or Alive’
Streaming over 500,000 times since release, ‘Dead or Alive’ landed the Newcastle based singer-songwriter in Spotify US’ Viral 50, peaking at #24. Receiving triple j airplay, rotation on triple j unearthed, Double J, FBi Radio and love from community radio across the country, ‘Dead or Alive’ was also included in Apple Music’s ‘Best of the Week.’
Now, Grace offers a fresh perspective in ‘Easy I Fall’. Written at the same time as ‘Dead or Alive’, ‘Easy I Fall’ was recorded slowly over a year between a back shed and a spare bedroom. This final iteration hits hard up front with its intentionally abrupt opening line ‘If you wanna fuck me then just tell me that you love me…”
Turner explains “This song is about being tirelessly perused. I used to play it first in my set to shock people into listening to me. I often joke in my live show that it’s about trying to break up with someone but sleeping with them instead. In a deeper sense it’s about power imbalances in relationships, not being listened to and putting someone’s wants and needs above your own.”
A captivating troubadour, Grace often has her audiences at a standstill, with those present hooked on her every note. Turner has so far supported Alex the Astronaut, Gabriella Cohen, Jess Locke, Kingswoodand Phil Jamieson (Grinspoon) in 2018 and recently played tastemaker festivals FKA Festivaland Against the Grain. Soon she and her band head to Festival of the Sun and Mountain Sounds Festival with more shows to be announced in 2019.
With ‘Easy I Fall’ marking just the third official release from Grace Turner, everyone is already falling hard for this rising talent.
