‘Stay Alive’ was surprise-released in October 2020, featuring Grace performing solo on guitar and drum machine. The album was recorded with Steve Albini at Electrical Audio in Chicago, Illinois.
“I just want to put this out because it makes me feel alive and it’s giving me something better than sitting here losing my mind while the world falls apart,” Grace said in a statement about the album. “It doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks about what you do. Just stay alive.”
In an interview with NME, Grace said the album concerns “themes of isolation, of watching the days burn away and being unable to stop that. Watching changes happen.
“But also of how illusionary those actually are and how just because something has changed, doesn’t mean it’s finished changing or that it’s in its final form.”
