Baker GraceChuck Willis
18 years old Baker Grace has arrived and, although she is making her debut with a new single and a new video, she is not a newcomer to the music industry. Creative of Bitter's Kiss, Grace came on the scene at the age of 14 and quickly became successful.
Now, as an adult with at least four years of experience to his credit, Grace begins a new chapter. This chapter begins with "Bad Kind of People," the single from his upcoming EP debut. Grace says the song is about taking control of her life after realizing that she's really the only one who knows what's best for her. The accompanying video of the single, presented below, follows Grace, who reviews the different versions of herself for others before eventually becoming the version of herself that counts most.
See the video for "Bad Kind of People" below, followed by an interview with Grace about her new musical direction and upcoming concerts.
You started in this business at such a young age. I am curious to know some of the most important lessons you have already learned that you think have helped you train or hinder your success.
Baker Grace: The most important thing I learned was to trust myself and my own instinct. When you're young, people try to tell you what to do and how to do it. It is easy to get lost and away from your sense of self that is not yet established. I've learned that no one can know what I'm capable of or what I'm going through as I do it. Nobody can see my vision like me. Therefore, I must be my biggest supporter and believe in myself when no one else does it. I would rather be broke and proud of who I am than lose myself in fame and fortune.
It seems that you are currently in a sort of state of re-branding, having left your previous job under the banner of Bitter's Kiss. Can you tell me a little more about choosing to separate yourself from it and go in a new direction?
Grace: I recorded an album called Bitter's Kiss when I was 14 and that's when my trip started. As an artist and a young woman, I grow and evolve every day and have learned a lot about myself in the last four years since I founded Bitter's Kiss. Baker Grace is a new chapter; an evolution of my previous work. My music has grown enormously and evolved creatively, just like my message. Baker Grace embraces the values of peace, self-esteem and understanding that I hold more than ever in my heart, in an artistic, authentic and contemporary way.
Knowing your work as a young artist, I remember that your father was very involved in your writing and recording process. Do you still work together on music?
Grace: My father and I will always have a special connection with music. We have been singing and writing together since I was little and I do not think it will ever go away. I will go home and go up the stairs singing something and my dad will hear me and rush to the piano to play the chords and soon we will harmonize something new. I work mainly with other producers and screenwriters but there is no doubt that some of the material we write together will soon result in a recording session.
What are the benefits for you currently as an independent artist as opposed to signing a label?
Grace: I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to create music independently. I have created privileged links with other artists and local people who are really interested in music. I have the power to create music that fascinates me and innovate, whether or not a song sounds like a typical "hit record". I've had the time to really find myself in my music and permission to be myself. through all this. I think that artists do not have enough time and freedom to develop and develop their art and I am happy to have had the chance to create my own destiny.
"Bad kind of people" I imagine that many people can understand it, but it is clearly inspired by your personal experiences. Could you tell me a little about the message of the song and its video?
Grace"Bad kind of people" is a song about trust in your own judgment. Every day the world fills with opinions. Social media, TV, your parents, and your friends all seem to know what's best for you before you do it. I found myself becoming a stranger in my own head and in the great ocean of thoughts and opinions, I could not determine which ones were mine. "Bad kind of people" describes me taking control of my life. I realized that no one knew better than me what was best for me and I started to trust my instinct in my musical career, my relationships and my desires. The video describes me undergoing changes and different versions of myself in order to please others, then to find myself alone on the roof where I could be my most authentic self.
You're no stranger to shooting music videos, but since it's essentially your first role as Baker Grace, did you feel the slightest pressure to really make a strong visual impression?
Grace: I was working with a team – especially my director, Chuck D Willis – who made me feel very comfortable on the set. This shoot was exciting for me because I had the chance to incorporate a little bit of actor into my performances and my shooting experience on a professional sound stage. I do not think I allowed myself to feel the pressure and concentrate on telling the story rather than becoming aware of my appearance. I have just entered my performance mode and I have tried to evoke the emotion of the song as strongly as possible while still entertaining me.
Since this is an important move for you to start 2019, do you have any other plans for the year? Something that you can reveal?
Grace: I have an EP, Girl I know, coming this spring with five songs. "Wrong Kind of People" is the first single and probably the one that is closest to my heart. I keep writing and hope to have my first full album soon. I'm also doing concerts and I'm going to start playing this year. I am very grateful for all the opportunities I have had and hope to continue to create more. I am very grateful to share and interpret my music for my fans and I hope you enjoy listening to my music as much as I liked creating it.
