catGRINZ - ESCAPISM (Single)

After originally establishing herself with a run of dynamic offerings in recent years, LA-based artist catGRINZ makes her eagerly-awaited return as she shares the mesmerising new single ‘ESCAPISM’.

Lifted from her eagerly-awaited new EP ‘Highest In The Room’, which is set to arrive very soon, ‘ESCAPISM’ sees her continue the broad and inventive direction she first emerged with. With its warm and tender approach to production, perfectly elevating her spellbinding vocal performance, her latest release cements her as a truly unique and innovative name on the rise right now.

Adding about the new track, she said, “This song is a love letter to weed, as an aid in my healing journey, and the start of a new chapter on the EP.”

Since releasing her last single in 2021, she has attended two music classes online and the song ‘Highest In The Room’ was actually a homework assignment for her Intro To Producing class. She went on to look for a new producer to help execute her new sound, and eventual EP. She found her current executive producer, Grammy-nominated Riley Urick, in August 2022, and began working on her upcoming EP ‘Highest In The Room’.

‘Highest In The Room’ brings you into an ethereal yet bass-heavy soundscape that exudes her raw emotion, struggles, and eventually, her transformation since the age of 21. The content of the EP is complemented by the cover art that displays the new brighter version of the artist, lighting a joint for the past version of herself, representing the way in which she reminisces on her old ways, heartbreaks, and how to start over.
