British singer-songwriter Henry Grace returns with ‘California Rain’, the fourth and final single from his forthcoming second album “Things Are Moving All Around Me”, which was co-produced by Blaine Harrison of Mystery Jets and recorded live to tape at Middle Farm Studios in Devon. ‘California Rain‘ serves as a wistful postcard to Grace’s early twenties spent living in Los Angeles – he moved to California at the age of 21, and played his first shows in the small clubs and bars of Los Angeles and San Francisco.
“Things Are Moving All Around Me” has been an album years in the making. Grace and Harrison first met at a songwriting retreat organised by Chris Difford at Pennard House in Somerset in 2022. Stealing away to a quiet church across the road, they wrote their first song together and, upon returning to London, started working on a new batch of songs Grace had been writing and soon had the early makings of a new album.
Speaking of the latest single, Grace says: “This song has always been a firm favourite of everyone involved in the making of this record. It offers a sense of yearning and a restlessness that runs like a thread through all the singles on the album.”
“Things Are Moving All Around Me” is out on January 23rd, with an album release show at Bush Hall on January 30th.
