Grace Ives is back with a new album and tour. The Brooklyn singer-songwriter and producer will release Girlfriend<\/em> on March 20 via True Panther\/Capitol. Written and produced alongside Ariel Rechtshaid and John DeBold, with mixing by Dave Fridmann, Girlfriend<\/em> follows 2022\u2019s Janky Star<\/em> and the trio of singles Ives released last November. Listen to new song \u201cStupid Bitches\u201d\u00a0below and scroll down for the tour dates.<\/p>\n

Ives says of the album in a press release, \u201cI shifted from escaping to exploring. Having some personal freedom made me realize that I\u2019m allowed to take up space\u2014to be social, to talk about how I feel, to try new things. This album is about giving myself room to fail, to experiment, and to become more honest in the music.\u201d<\/p>\n
