R.W. Grace

Essentially the solo project of Australian singer/songwriter <a href="spotify:artist:6eMOqUqLUBE24yBrdb8XHd">Grace Woodroofe</a>, R.W. Grace makes atmospheric, minimalist folk and electronica. A native of Perth, <a href="spotify:artist:6eMOqUqLUBE24yBrdb8XHd">Woodroofe</a> first came to the public's attention in 2008 after several songs she entered into the Triple J radio competition Unearthed caught the ear of Los Angeles art collective the Masses, who brought her to California to develop her sound alongside such luminaries as <a href="spotify:artist:6uHjKRsYGaElOrKWlSEji3">American Music Club</a>'s <a href="spotify:artist:4W1poTLCG6XjhBUVehcaMB">Mark Eitzel</a>, bassist/producer Justin Meldal-Johnsen, and others. Subsequently, in 2012, <a href="spotify:artist:6eMOqUqLUBE24yBrdb8XHd">Woodroofe</a> delivered her moody, blues and folk-infused debut album, Always Want, featuring production from guitarist <a href="spotify:artist:45lorWzrKLxfKlWpV7r9CN">Ben Harper</a>. In 2014, <a href="spotify:artist:6eMOqUqLUBE24yBrdb8XHd">Woodroofe</a> returned under the name R.W. Grace with the single "Pluto." Featuring production via <a href="spotify:artist:3HJIB8sYPyxrFGuwvKXSLR">TV on the Radio</a>'s Dave Sitek, "Pluto" revealed a more arch, sophisticated sound and a heavy electronic pop direction. ~ Matt Collar, Rovi
