Grace Ives - Janky Star

Facts Janky Star is the 2022 album from pop-polymath Grace Ives, following 2019's critically acclaimed debut, 2nd. The 10 tracks are full of punchy synths and unconventional rhythms, but she uses the quiet spaces in between to honestly reflect on her ongoing struggle to find stability and happiness. Touching on sobriety, overdoses, and the desire to escape the realities of modern life, Janky Star focuses on the rewards of slowing down and finally finding a home for herself in the ever-shifting world.
