GracieHorse (Fat Creeps) Signs To Wharf Cat Records, Shares Music Video for "What I'm Missing"
Today Wharf Cat Records announced L.A.-based songwriter GracieHorse as the newest addition to their roster, and shared a music video for her recent single "What I'm Missing." GracieHorse was a founding member of Boston based rock band Fat Creeps, and has contributed to albums by Alex Izenberg (his latest, I'm Not Here), Color Green, and Jonny Kosmo (who also produced "What I'm Missing").
“What I'm Missing,” is expansive, a world inside of a song. It’s cosmic country: there are shitty motels and perfect vocal harmonies. True crime sleuths, hours spent rotting on the Internet, and poignant allusions to working in healthcare during the pandemic. “Now everyone’s spooked/at the Motel 6/eatin’ dive bar wings/in a hazmat suit,” she sings in one particularly evocative line. It’s a stunning song: all keys, crisp pedal steel.
About the track, Gracie writes: "When I moved to California I was very homesick for a long time, and the pandemic didn’t help. I missed my old friends and family and all the stuff we used to get into. I tried to go out and make new friends but I am really shy and at times it was such a disaster, it was hard to connect with people here- there is sort of a cultural difference between east and west coast for sure-how people talk and socialize. I started to get pretty attached to the nostalgia of my life back in Massachusetts.
GracieHorse will be an official showcasing artist at South by Southwest 2023
