Griff Talks Touring With Gracie Abrams, The Art Of Producing, And Seeing Her Debut Album In A New Light

Having recently opened for Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter, Griff is no stranger to the arena stage. This August, she's on the road again with Gracie Abrams, ready to deliver the sleek synth-pop of 'Last Night's Mascara' and the emotional catharsis of 'Miss Me Too.' Ahead of her shows, I caught up with Griff on Zoom to talk touring, the one-year anniversary of Vertigo, and the power of music production. Note: This interview has been edited for length and clarity. Related: BuzzFeed: My friends and I saw Gracie Abrams at Madison Square Garden last week, and she was amazing! How did you hear the news that Gracie wanted you to open?Griff: I feel like everyone envisions that when you get asked to do support, it's the artist calling you, like, "Hey girl, you free?" I wish I could say that's how it goes, but usually my manager calls me up and tells me about the offer. What was your reaction?I had it in my head that this summer I was just going to write. I was not gonna be out there at all; I haven't done any shows this year. But it was a fun U-turn to make, and of course, it was a no-brainer to say you have a favorite Gracie song?"21" has always been my jam! You've opened for some massive tours, including Taylor Swift's Eras tour and Sabrina Carpenter's tour. What are some lessons you've learned from being a part of these shows?They're both such pros. Taylor and Sabrina both have such high-production shows. It's quite humbling. It just shows how much work there is to do. You can see how many years went into honing their craft and building a fanbase that just yells every single lyric. It's really cool to see on that scale. So, yeah, it's not one specific thing; it's more that they are quite inspiring to watch. Related: As a fellow Swiftie, I'm curious, do you have a favorite era? Mine is I love that it's completely self-written by interesting! Mine's Fearless. That's the first album of hers I listened to, and she really introduced me to pop music. Before that, I was growing up on a lot of Gospel and R&B music. When you open for these massive tours, is it scary to perform in front of tens of thousands of people?(Griff laughs) It's terrifying! Stadiums in the daytime are also hard because you've got daylight. You want no light, to help people focus on you. Also, at a stadium level, you're playing in front of so many people, and you really have no idea how they will receive debut album, recently celebrated its one-year anniversary. I love that album, and I'm curious, how do you feel about it a year later?Thank you so much. My perspective definitely changed. I love Vertigo — it was the first album I put out into the world. Like any first in your life, you sometimes see what you would have done differently, but you're like, "Ah, it was my first time."It was a real boot camp of what goes into making an album. There were moments that were totally overwhelming, and there were moments with a lot of the album has made me fall in love with it in a new way. Sometimes, as an artist, you sit with your songs for so long on your laptop, and you go around in circles, not knowing if they're any good. When you perform them live to an audience that loves the songs, you almost fall in love with them all over again. Related: When I saw you perform in New York City, the crowd was really into the title track "Vertigo." Were you surprised by how fans specifically connected with that song?Yeah, I was. I kind of had to fight for that one; it's not an obvious choice for a single. I really like it, and it does build up, but it's just not an obvious energetic pop song. I wasn't sure how people would receive it, so it's cool seeing how great it is to perform fan favorite is your recent single, Can you share about the songwriting process for that song?"Last Night's Mascara" was an off-cut from the album. I had about 100 songs at one point when I was picking the songs for the album, and that one just managed to slip through.I was touring with Sabrina, and I've never released music while I've done support, but I was thinking of trying something and seeing how it resonates. The song wasn't finished at all, so I was teaching it to my band, but it wasn't mixed or fully produced. As we were performing, I was going back and finishing the was a cool experiment, and it felt empowering to do something a bit more off the cuff. It wasn't so rigid, like, "Here's the label plan, here's the single, and here's how we're rolling it out.' I'm very grateful to Sabrina's fans and everyone else who received it really nicely. You write your own songs, and you also produce your music. What is it like to be involved in the whole life cycle of a song?As a kid, I grew up in the suburbs knowing I wanted to write songs. I had a lot of time, and I started teaching myself how to make beats as a hobby. The music industry is such a hard one to get into. I didn't know how to contact producers, so I thought, "I know I've got a song idea — I'm going to try and make it sound how I want it to sound."For me, producing has always gone hand in hand with songwriting. It was only when I started getting more into the industry that I realized it was quite a rare thing for girls to produce. People would always be like, "Oh, my God, she's a girl, and she produced this!" And I was like, "Is that weird?" There's definitely still a big disparity in female producers, and it wasn't something that I was conscious of when I started, but it's really important to changes a whole song, you know? It's like a designer designing a top and having no say in how it's styled on the runway. Suddenly, it could be styled in a completely different way — in a way that you didn't want the top to look. It's so important to me to "dress up the song in the right way," if that makes sense. That makes a lot of sense. I think a great example is how you released an acoustic version of "Last Night's Mascara," and it feels like a completely different song!It almost sounds like a folk song, in a way! You can take a song anywhere, depending on production, which is the fun challenge of it. There are so many steps that can alter I was performing "Last Night's Mascara" live, I was rushing to finish it, and everyone was like, "Girl, can you stop teasing it?" I made the recorded version, and then I put out a snippet on TikTok. Everyone was like, "No, no, it's not the same as the live version!" I'd been posting these live videos, but there was so much reverb in the room that it gave the song a type of etherealness. I had to go back and remix it in a way that reflected that reverb-y arena room. So yeah, production really changes a song. Related: For Gracie Abrams fans that will be seeing you for the first time, which song of yours would you recommend as a first listen?For a Gracie fan, I would recommend maybe "Astronaut" and "Miss Me Too." They're on different spectrums of energy, but I think they both have that same emotional feel. Can you give us a tease of what's up next for your music?I'm really experimenting at the moment! I think "Last Night's Mascara" is a good tease energy-wise, for where I want to take my music. But other than that, I'm still figuring it what do you hope that fans take away from listening to your music and from your live performances?I hope people are moved by the songs and want to go back and listen to the album. I hope they go back to them, whether you're in the car, or commuting to work, or just like, in the kitchen by yourself, and that different moments on the album really you, Griff, for taking the time to chat!
