” And I actually came out not quite long after I wrote that song because I think it was my exploration and the final stamp of who I am. It gave me the confidence to be like, “Oh, I’m saying this for a reason. As I wrote that song, it was kind of like me finally putting into words how I felt on the inside as a kid, and as a teen, and as a young adult. I was writing it when I was having a gender crisis. The song is for anybody it doesn’t have to be just for trans kids or anybody of the queer realm. I actually wrote it when I thought that I identified as a woman, which I no longer do. What comes to mind when you think about “ I Wanna Be a Boy ” ?ĪG: I don’t want to say it’s a funny song, but it was a funny experience writing it. JR: Let’s go through the EP’s five songs.
It just fit with the name Immaturing so well and showed me as a person - there’s still a kid but just a little more mature. So, I just found this amazing artist called snakelung on Instagram whose aesthetic was nostalgic but mature. I’ve never liked the idea of using a picture of me standing somewhere looking cool - it’s supposed to be a work of art. How did you choose yours?ĪG: I used to be a visual artist as a kid, and so I ended up being really picky with who I wanted to make cover art for me. JR: I’m always curious about album cover art. It’s such a big goal of mine to finally have a compilation of songs together, and each song just means so much to me. It was very much a new experience to be working on so much music rather than just one single. It took me months of flying across the country and working with people I’d never met before, writing by myself and writing with others. JONATHAN RIGGS: How does it feel to release your debut EP, Immaturing ?ĪDDISON GRACE: I’m so unbelievably proud. He spoke to Shondaland about what it means to be a thoughtful 21-year-old artist - and human being - in 2022 on the cusp of a huge career ascendance. Identifying as a nonbinary bisexual trans man, Grace (who uses he/they pronouns) makes queer indie pop anyone can appreciate, rooted in deep emotion and powered by his gloriously evocative voice. After conquering social media (more than 3.8 million followers on TikTok, more than 500,000 followers on Instagram, and more than 200,000 YouTube subscribers), the rising star recently released his debut EP, Immaturing, and announced his first headlining tour, which will kick off this August and September.

So that’s what I thought of Addison Grace’s single ‘Sugar Rush’ and if you want to check that out for yourself then head on over to Spotify. I loved the balance between the slower, more melancholic parts and the more high energy parts, they created a nice counterpoint in what has turned out to be a wonderfully engaging track. Addison’s voice has a depth and originality to it that means they could sing anything and it’d sound good. ‘Sugar Rush’ opens with some vibrant strings, sweet and melodic, but not quite a sugar rush yet, joking aside it’s a smooth, ambient intro that’s light and effervescent but not forgettable. Today, however, I will be reviewing her single ‘Sugar Rush’ which was released on August 25th 2020.
