Grace Humphries
At just 18, The Austin, TX Hill Country-based Grace Humphries is already effortlessly writing shockingly well crafted songs that artists twice her age would envy.
Grace is constantly creating music, in and out of the studio. She hears the melodies in her head at school and at home, where she gets her ideas down via her small home recording studio. In 2024 Grace shot through the ranks at the annual All-State choir competition TPSMEA (Texas Private School Music Educators Association) as First Soprano. She won TAPPS (Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools) in 2020 with her rendition of “Think of Me” from Phantom of the Opera, and also won in 2022 as a soloist with her original composition, “I Am Found”. She cut her teeth performing up to hour-long sets at Chamber of Commerce events, local farmers markets as well as wineries and steakhouses.
In March of 2024, Grace had the amazing opportunity to travel to England and spend a week recording at the famous Abbey Road Studios. She also embarked on her first mini radio promotion that took her to Nashville and Knoxville, Tennessee, as well as Atlanta, Georgia where she had the opportunity to be a guest on WSM 650 Coffee, Country and Cody, WDVX The Blue Plate Special and WRFG The Americana Garage with Steve Kilbride. Her most recent radio promotion took her to Sonoma County in Northern California where she was Doug Jayne's guest on KRCB 104.9 Sonoma County's NPR Station for an on-air interview and live performance. She followed the on air with a live performance at the HopMonk Tavern in Sebastopol, CA to help raise funds for KRCB.
Grace is an active member of her church’s Worship Team, where she regularly leads music for both adult and youth ministries. A recent high school graduate with High Honors and a concentration in Classical Christian Education, Grace is now setting her sights on higher education. She plans to apply to colleges that offer specialized programs in commercial singing and songwriting, with the goal of further developing her musical gifts and pursuing her passion.
Driven by the natural determination and focus of a true born artist as well as from the sense of loss she has experienced in her few short years, Grace creates music to express the joy, fragility and beauty of life as well as uses that music to connect to others. And even at the age of 18, she knows exactly what she wants. “I just want to be happy doing what I love: storytelling and performing,” she explains, “Writing music that is meaningful and connects with people in a very real way.”
