Prized producer, songwriter, and collaborator Mallrat – aka Grace Shaw – is a master of clever, timeless pop. Her trio of early  EPs  – Uninvited  (2016), In  The  Sky  (2018), Driving  Music  (2019)  –  are  documents  of  an  artist  on  the  rise.  Mallrat has  garnered  attention  from  the  NY  Times,  NYLON,  NPR,  and  more.  PAPER  named  her  in  their  “100  Women Revolutionizing  Pop,”  after  making  it  onto  the  “Best  of”  lists  by  The  Fader,  Billboard,  NOISEY,  NME,  Triple  J,  and  Teen Vogue. At  home  in Australia,  she  continues  to  place Top  5  on Triple  J  charts.  In  the  states,  she  made  her  late-night TV performance debut on the Late Late Show With James Corden, while in the UK, winning “Best Australian Solo Act” at the NME Awards. She has toured both at home and internationally, including supports for Maggie Rogers, Post Malone, and King Princess, selling out headline shows from London to New York, and collecting fans in the likes of Mark Ronson and Azealia Banks along the way.  Now, the multi-talented artist and performer Mallrat announces her debut full-length, Butterfly Blue, where she embodies the  spirit  of  its  titular  creature,  but  without  the  delicacy  that  keeps  you  at  a  distance.  Over  a  dozen  clever  and  open-hearted tracks, she draws you in close and shows you the world through her wide, hopeful eyes. “I’ve  always  valued  music  that  is  interesting,  beautiful,  and  unpretentious.  Something  timeless  and  not  reactive,”  Shaw says. “‘Butterfly Blue’ was made with that in mind. It’s a demonstration of not pretending to be anyone else.”
