My third album, Heartsong, is out NOW. :,) Produced by @mattcorby and @gabstrum at Rainbow Valley studios. Mixed by @christopherglen, mastered by @iamgeorge. Front cover by @tomnicholaslewi, back cover by @m.ridley_ - design by Caity Moloney, shoot produced by @tomm_perignon and creative direction by @zoeemoves.🫀🎶
This album is about grief - how I came to know it, wrestle with it and learned to live alongside it, following a life-altering health scare that I endured shortly after turning 26. It is a recount of how quickly my outlook on life, my priorities, my relationships and my career, changed after my world as I knew it turned on a dime. It sings of loss in more ways than one: the loss of my health, as I cautiously recovered from a heart disease that stripped me entirely of my physical and mental wellbeing. The loss of a long term relationship that crumbled under the pressure of an unimaginably challenging time. And the temporary yet tremendous loss of my career in music - the humbling possibility that maybe the kind of career I had been working towards and imagining for myself, was not meant to be.
Amidst the heaviness and heartache of it all, a part of me was shaken awake once my confidence was shot, forcing me to come to terms with what I truly valued about my life. As much as this album unpacks what it means to sit with your sadness, to honour it, to give it every aching minute, it also tells the story of a triumphant return to one’s sense of self, and how retreating to the ocean, your family and friendships, your journal, and your guitar & piano will be the things that mirror your inner essence, true purpose, and your reason to be. Heartsong was written, often through tears, over the course of a year and a half. These 12 songs (Heartsongs, if you will) were born within the walls of my childhood room in Melbourne, after soothing swims in Sydney, and underneath towering trees in the Northern Rivers rainforest - in the safe haven of Rainbow Valley studios where the album found it’s forever home.

I’ll Be There, Scene 11 (Behind The Scenes) is out now ♥️ A precious collection of off-camera moments captured over the course of our 3 day shoot back in April - we shot all of the videos in those 3 days, as well as all of the press photos, the album cover, and essentially everything that lives in the Heartsong visual universe 🫀 It took one hell of a team to pull this all together and I am endlessly grateful to them all for their extreme dedication to this project. It felt very fitting to have the ‘I’ll Be There’ video be the scene that celebrates friendship, teamwork and connection, because I wrote it about my friends and family! Platonic love songs for the win. I cannot wait to sing it on tour. ✨ #reels #explore #newmusic #originalsong #bts

Dreams Are Everything Until You Awaken, Scene 9 is up on my YouTube now ♥️ I wrote this song about my relationship to my big dreams needing to change, after thinking about how much of my growing up had been entirely defined by my dreams. Writing this song made me ask the scary question of “who am I without this?” - I was listening to so much Joni at the time of writing Dreams… so many of my longtime influences inspired this song and I feel deeply connected to them every time I perform it.
This scene was hectic yet so much fun to shoot - we went a slightly different direction for this one, wanting the stop-start, slow shutter speed effect to parallel with the lyric “time is moving at top speed, it won’t slow down, it’s manic”, while still capturing a childlike playfulness and softness - how it feels to have big dreams, I think. I hope you love it 🫀 #reels #explore #newmusic #originalsong

Please Be Gentle With Me, Scene 8 is up on my YouTube now 🫀 I wrote this song with @alexoshaughnessymusic in LA when I was feeling happy and immensely fragile! It’s the only song on the album that was written outside of Australia, despite how much writing I did for the record overseas last year. I spoke about this song a lot on the Heartsong Hideout Regional run, about how writing it felt quite seperate from the album at the time… but then life kept happening and I realised that it was in fact a very crucial part of the Heartsong narrative. A little beam of sunlight amongst the heavier songs, yet still with a sense of ache to it.
We shot this scene at 8am while I was staring out at a sparkling sea. I am obsessed with how the pink of the dress brings out the pink in the orange rocks and truly felt like I was on a Vogue shoot for this one. I hope you enjoy 🫀 x #reels #explore #newmusic #originalsong

Never, Scene 7 is up on my YouTube now 🫀
I love this scene and song so much! I wrote Never in April last year, directly after a conversation with a friend about how lost I was feeling. Confused about where I was meant to be in the world and what kind of music I was meant to be making, I was still grieving the idea of a life in London, and all that I had imagined would come with it. I was reassured in that conversation that because I was back in Australia and healing myself properly, I was writing some of my best material yet - the album I was meant to be making, that I maybe never would have in that alternate universe. ‘Never’ spilled out of me in @robbydesa’s studio in 3 hours, right before I flew back to Melbourne.
We shot this scene on the way to the beach to film ‘Swimming, Crying’. I was so comfortable, and so very myself, just having a sing in the car along my favourite coastline. A lot of softness and joy in this one. I hope you love it. ♥️ #reels #explore #newmusic #originalsong

Touring an album always reveals who is really listening to your songs. Gretta Ray assumed her front row would be filled purely with pop enthusiasts.
Instead, she noticed a whole mix of people coming out to support her latest era.
Listen to the full ep, linked in our bio.

My third album Heartsong is number 3 on the Aus album @aria_official charts 🫀 It’s also number 8 on the vinyl charts and number 11 globally, which is the highest result we’ve ever gotten :,) Thank you X1000 for making this happen, for coming to the shows this week, for buying the album and for believing in this new music ♥️ I am overjoyed. This album is about healing, returning and rebuilding - it is massively personal, so to have this kind of outcome means more to me than I can tell you. I’m so excited for the life that this album will have. Thank you for everything.

Holiday Season, Scene 6 is up on my YouTube now ♥️ This video is such a triumph to me, because we so nearly didn’t get a scene for this song. I thought we had run out of time because we had lost daylight, but at the very last minute, we managed to pull something together - with a ladder, a spotlight, and the only outfit I had not yet worn on the shoot (which ended up being perfect for this particularly vulnerable scene). We only shot this one take, and I worried that because of that, there would be a chance that I wouldn’t like it. But I LOVED it. Unbelievably grateful to everyone involved. I hope you enjoy, what an incredible release week this has been. 🫀 #reels #explore #newmusic #originalsong

Release week of my dreams part 1 ♥️ We’re playing @hummusic in Sydney tomorrow at 5pm to wrap up what has been a hugely busy, unforgettably special first week of Heartsong being out in the world 🫀 I can’t thank you enough. Sydney I can’t wait to see you 🥹🪽

Turn Off My Music, Scene 5 is up on my YouTube now 🫀 Filming this was such an emotional experience, which caught me and the rest of the team off guard. We had planned for it to just be a simple performance peace to camera - I had no idea I would cry in both takes, but something about singing this song to an audience for the first time made me massively emotional because lyrically, it is so exposing. Because of how real and raw it was it quickly became one of my favourites videos from the shoot. You can watch it in full now ♥️
