A Path Through Grief and Hope
The song’s simple words talk about loss, but also give a message of hope. Gracey’s words invite listeners to think about the chance to connect beyond the physical world, and they bring comfort to those who have suffered from loss.
“Afterlife” is the first song from Gracey’s upcoming album. The album will offer a selection of songs that touch, encourage, and strengthen. It shows Gracey’s strength and creative drive, and how she turns personal moments into music that many can relate to and feel good about.
In a recent interview, Gracey said, “The past few years have been very hard – losing both parents, trying to keep their musical memory alive, managing the recording studio my father built, and putting together tribute concerts for them. It was too much, and I struggled to follow my own creative path.”
The artist also commented her memories of words of encouragement – “I remember my mother’s words, ‘Never give up!’ and I draw strength from the trust my parents had in me as an artist, as well as the love and help from my partner, his daughter, my own daughter, family, friends, along with fans.”
Inspired by artists such as Florence and the Machine and London Grammar, Gracey’s music joins today’s soft pop with touches of simple acoustic pop and personal songwriting. Her unique sound has caught the eye of music directors, and her music now appears on MTV, Hulu, along with Amazon Prime.
“Ana Gracey’s ‘Afterlife’ shows how music can heal and lift spirits. Her sincere words and clear vocals make a mix that touches and lifts the heart. This is a strong first song from a promising artist.” – PopHits.Co Music Curator Team
