After spending the greater half of 2014 in endless songwriting sessions, Grace decided to refocus on her path as an artist. Following her first full-band LA show at the hip Silverlake venue The Satellite in November, Grace was invited to do a live acoustic performance on Long Beach’s Static Beach Radio. Her debut EP, Lost Boy, which was released on May 12, was born out of many songwriting sessions during which her collaborators became more interested in having Grace release the songs than pitching them to other artists. The collection of quirky indie-pop songs, which is co-produced by Grace, enlists the talents of Rooney's Taylor Locke, The Hush Sound's Bob Morris, and up-and-coming hit songwriter/producer Joe London (“Wiggle”).

The music video for her second single "Not Gonna Cry" recently premiered on the blog of the internationally known clothing brand, Drop Dead.

In October of 2013, Grace took a leap of faith at the advice of Sam Cox at BMI and left NYU for Los Angeles. The move to the West Coast proved to be the right one as her first year in LA was spent songwriting with some of the industry’s most promising names and taking meetings with top music publishers and managers including hit songwriter and industry vet Evan Bogart.

Twenty-two year old singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Grace Kelly began her musical journey at the age of 14 while living in her hometown of John's Creek, GA. From playing bass in a punk rock band to singing hip hop hooks across metro-Atlanta, her young talent and songwriting attracted supporters such as Grammy nominated producer/songwriter J. Que Smith (Beyonce, Ariana Grande), Butch Walker, and Brian Bell of Weezer. After graduating high school in 2011, Grace moved to NYC to attend the prestigious Clive Davis Institute at NYU which adheres to a strict 10% acceptance rate. There she was chosen as the sole recipient of the Dan Hartman Scholarship by her now frequent collaborator and Grammy winner, Charlie Midnight (James Brown, Cher, Britney Spears). Throughout her time in NYC she worked with notable writers and artists such as Hoodie Allen and Grammy nominated producer Angel Aponte while also performing at such venues as Tammany Hall, Gramercy Theatre, Webster Hall and The Bitter End.
