GRACIE ABRAMS - THE SECRET OF US
Limited Yellow Coloured Vinyl · 1LP
With The Secret of Us, Gracie Abrams stepped confidently beyond the intimate world of her earlier releases and into something bigger, sharper and far more assured. Her second studio album captures the rush of young relationships, messy emotions and the conversations that keep running through your head long after they've happened.
Released in 2024, the album finds Abrams working once again with producer Aaron Dessner, while also collaborating with her close friend and frequent co-writer Audrey Hobert. The result is a record that retains the diaristic honesty of Abrams' songwriting while giving it a more expansive, energetic sound.
From the immediate pull of “Risk” and the smoky frustration of “Blowing Smoke” to the vulnerability of “I Love You, I'm Sorry”, Abrams turns complicated relationships and conflicting emotions into songs that feel intensely personal without losing their pop sensibility.
The album's standout moment, “us.”, features Taylor Swift, bringing two generations of confessional songwriting together on one of the record's most talked-about tracks. Elsewhere, “Let It Happen”, “Free Now” and “Close To You”continue the album's exploration of love, uncertainty and emotional growing pains.
Pressed on yellow coloured vinyl, this edition presents The Secret of Us in a striking physical format and captures an important point in Abrams' evolution — an album where the quiet songwriter of minor and Good Riddance begins to sound much more comfortable taking up space.
