Mallrat

Butterfly Blue

The Brisbane-based songwriter takes steps towards a bigger amalgam of influences..

Much of the Australian alt-pop artist’s debut screams potential hit – these compelling compositions are still perfect for bedrooms, but could captivate festival stages, too.

On paper, this should sound disjointed; even incongruous—but the real thing works surprisingly well.

Australian singer-songwriter Grace Shaw floats between cloud rap and dream pop with the tossed-off affectations of a weary internet princess.

With her long-awaited and frequently brilliant first album, the Australian artist continues to find sublimeness in the mundane.

Mallrat’s charm comes best when she blends the simplicity of teenage dreams with a gentle touch on the console. A charming debut, Butterfly Blue is bedroom pop writ large.
