Hailing from the small town of Ocala, Florida, GRAIVE now calls Los Angeles home as she begins to speak with her voice of music. Today, with the new single “Nothing New,” she follows that template of taking her own experiences and putting them into something stirring.
After some early success as a producer, GRAIVE quickly changed her lane toward singing and songwriting. This switch bore immediate fruit with the release of her first-ever track, “Can’t Stop,” and within minutes, she had inked her first deal with CMG. GRAIVE’s music is based on raw emotion and tales from her life, to which many can relate.
“Nothing New” speaks to the frustration of giving oneself to somebody who isn’t giving back that effort. GRAIVE uses her soulful vocals and heartfelt lyrics to paint a story that mostly everyone can relate to, giving its audience a moment to think about how they feel about their experiences with their self-worth. GRAIVE shares, “This song was inspired by nonstop trying for someone who just does not put in the same effort yet expects you to be there at their convenience. It’s about never feeling surprised by their actions because you’re always met with empty promises. Hence, that’s ‘nothing new.’ I hope my listeners feel a sense of empowerment when listening to this track and that it inspires those who can relate to not take that type of treatment from the person they love.”
The journey from Ocala to Los Angeles has been one of personal and, above all, musical growth for her. It is through her music that GRAIVE lets her experience flow to her audience. Her songs resonate with nothing but rawness and an intention to connect people with similar emotions or experiences.
“Nothing New” is now available on all major streaming platforms. The release just goes on to prove that GRAIVE has been more than dedicated to putting out music that entertains but also comforts and empowers her listeners. Its tune and message make “Nothing New” a favorite among fans and newcomers alike.
Keep up with all things GRAIVE through her website and social media. The thing that will ultimately make her one to watch over the next few years is the fact that she keeps on with her tireless work and music that speaks to people in a way that only the best can capture.
