How does @gracieabrams stay grounded amid becoming one of the most talked-about and listened-to new artists? For the 24-year-old singer-songwriter, it’s all about female friendship. While the concept of girlhood has become a buzzy topic on the internet—Abrams acknowledging that “the way that people are able to capture and romanticize bonding can feel trendy”—that doesn’t make it any less validating. Citing support from other women as “the backbone of her life,” she credits those who have come before her for paving the way. “There are women who have been doing this for way longer than I have who are such icons, and when you see them being supportive of one another, it makes intimidating rooms feel warmer immediately,” she explains. Whether this takes the form of co-writing and performing on the #ErasTour with @taylorswift or a wider step back in admiration of all the female artists currently dominating the zeitgeist of music, Abrams doesn’t take her role in it for granted.
