FOR FANS OF: Flyleaf, Arcade Fire, Lorde
Moni Grace, a 23 year old singer-songwriter based out of Boston, MA, released her debut album earlier this year on January 24th, 2021, called Safer Under The Covers. The record is an emotional journey for your ears, exploring themes of violence, self love, and forgiveness. It's punk-pop soul, and it's a beautiful, heart-wrenching album. It's raw, honest, and real, and I love it.
Safer Under The Covers is the end of a coming-of-age movie. It's growing up, it's healing, it's taking yourself away from your teenage years into the strange, mysterious land of adulthood. My favorite tracks off of it are "Winter Break Is Over," "Drunk in the Snow," and "Coffee Table."
Quite frankly, I'm obsessed with this record. Moni Grace's voice is warm and familiar, and the story told throughout the album is vibrant and real. Moni has something very special, very honest and open that she captured amazingly throughout these 16 tracks. She put all the good parts & the bad parts of your teenage years & early 20's into one record, as if it was a memoir, and it's so good.
This record is one that I'll listen to over and over, discovering something new about myself with every listen. I truly love Safer Under The Covers, it's amazing. It's essential listening if you're young and a little bit broken, bit tired - Moni Grace gets it.
