Gracious Me is an award-winning songwriter who writes and sings southern-inflected, female-perspective literary Americana songs. Soulful, powerful singing, thoughtful lyrics, and memorable melodies all serve the message of Gracious Me's songs. The new Gracious Me album, "True to Life" is now available, and has been in the Top 20 in the Roots Music Report Folk Charts and Radio Guitar One Folk charts this fall! Most recently, Gracious Me was a 2020 honorable mention in the Great River Folk Fest songwriter video contest and a 2019 South Florida Folk Fest Songwriting Competition finalist. Her original song "The Battle's Not Over" was named a finalist in the 2019 Rapunzel's 17th Annual Songwriting Contest. You can also pick up the debut EP, "Introducing . . . Gracious Me" right here on the website under MUSIC, in hard copy at CD Baby, downloads from iTunes and Amazon, and streaming on Spotify and elsewhere. Gracious Me and the Ingrates is the collective expression of Gracious Me songs and a few tasteful covers, so come see us at one of our duo or band performances. Thanks for listening!
