Meet the Artist You Need to Know<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Nineteen years old, straight out of London, and already lighting up the stage, <strong>Matilda Grace<\/strong> is a singer-songwriter with a killer pen and a rock spirit. She\u2019s no stranger to live gigs, having already performed sold-out shows at iconic venues like <strong>The Troubadour<\/strong> and <strong>The Half Moon<\/strong>. Now, she officially steps into the spotlight with her debut single <strong><em>\u201cNot Your Ex Yet\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the first taste of her upcoming EP, set to drop later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><em><strong>The Sound: Pop Rock with a Punk Edge<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Matilda Grace<\/strong>\u2019s music hits that perfect sweet spot between catchy and cutting. Her style blends punchy <strong>pop-rock<\/strong> vibes with just the right amount of <strong>punk<\/strong> attitude. Think <strong>Lily Allen<\/strong>\u2019s sass, <strong>Olivia Rodrigo<\/strong>\u2019s raw emotion, and a bit of <strong>Blondie<\/strong>\u2019s edge, all rolled into one. <em><strong>\u201cNot Your Ex Yet\u201d<\/strong> <\/em>isn\u2019t just a song; it\u2019s a musical eye-roll in the best way possible.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"1170\" src=\"https:\/\/radionewyorklive.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/matilda3-780x1170.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29602\" style=\"width:408px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/radionewyorklive.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/matilda3-780x1170.webp 780w, https:\/\/radionewyorklive.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/matilda3-513x770.webp 513w, https:\/\/radionewyorklive.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/matilda3-768x1152.webp 768w, https:\/\/radionewyorklive.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/matilda3-1024x1536.webp 1024w, https:\/\/radionewyorklive.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/matilda3.webp 1067w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong><em>Lyrics That Sting  and Heal<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s something disarmingly real about the way <strong>Matilda Grace<\/strong> expresses emotion. <em><strong>\u201cNot Your Ex Yet\u201d<\/strong> <\/em>dives into the messiness of relationships, the blurred lines, the self-doubt, the frustration, and delivers it with biting wit and brutal honesty. It\u2019s not a pity party; it\u2019s a moment of clarity. Vulnerability and strength collide, and the result is powerful, relatable, and seriously cathartic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong><em>More Than a Voice: A Full-On Performer<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, her voice is stunning, soft one moment, fiery the next , but that\u2019s just one part of the package. <strong>Matilda Grace<\/strong> also plays the drums, writes all her own drum parts, and is now experimenting with singing and drumming live at the same time. It\u2019s bold, it\u2019s different, and it proves she\u2019s not here to follow trends, she\u2019s here to set them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong><em>From Theatre School to Sold-Out Shows<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite being at the beginning of her music career, <strong>Matilda Grace<\/strong>\u2019s live presence is magnetic. She trained at top UK performing arts schools like <strong>Arts Ed<\/strong> and <strong>LAMDA<\/strong>, and it shows. Her stage energy is pure electricity, and her sold-out headline show at The Troubadour is just the beginning. She brings that theatre edge to every performance, raw, real, and unforgettable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong><em>What\u2019s Next?<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After making waves with <strong><em>\u201cNot Your Ex Yet\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, <strong>Matilda Grace<\/strong> is already turning heads in the industry. She\u2019s been longlisted for the <strong>Glastonbury Emerging Performer<\/strong> competition, and her debut EP is almost ready to drop. If this first single is anything to go by, she\u2019s about to serve up a project packed with punch, heart, and originality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Matilda Grace<\/strong> is not your average up-and-comer. She\u2019s sharp, emotional, and refreshingly unfiltered, an artist who turns messy feelings into music that hits hard and sticks. If you&#8217;re into artists who mean what they sing and aren&#8217;t afraid to shake things up, keep her on your radar. Big things are coming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:59px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/intl-it\/track\/0706vXMkN6zOkW0gelP298?si=afdd8b80723448fe&amp;nd=1&amp;dlsi=b9bf704f16804dc9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Not Your Ex Yet&#8221; on Spotify<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/matildagracee\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matilda Grace on Instagram<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/matildagracemusic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matilda Grace Website<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/login?redirect_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tiktok.com%2F%40matildagraceeee&amp;lang=en&amp;enter_method=mandatory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matilda Grace on TikTok<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pop-rock meets raw honesty in Matilda Grace\u2019s debut single.
