“Releasing Good Riddance is the first time I’ve done anything musically that felt like 110% myself.”
In this Amazon Music album spotlight, Gracie Abrams reflects on the process of writing and creating her debut album, Good Riddance. Gracie touches on the writing process for the album, how much had changed and shifted over the course of making it and the at times challenging and painful work that went into writing it. Gracie also reflects on her important bond with producer Aaron Dessner and work together creating the album, and how both Aaron and the environment of his studio helped foster a space for Gracie to open up to create. For Gracie, Good Riddance was a self-healing journey, and although it had its challenges, was ultimately a fun process and one that was incredibly fulfilling.
