Thread Name: new singer songwriter Grace Petrie
Subject: RE: new singer songwriter Grace Petrie
I know it's been a while since this thread was opened, but I thought people might like an update on how Grace's career is progressing. She played on the Leftfield stage at this year's Glastonbury, where curator Billy Bragg claimed she stole the show. She's also supported Billy, most recently as last week on the last date of his UK tour. She's now got a website at http://www.gracepetrie.com/ where you can listen to her latest CD and even buy it if you want.

Here are three YouTube links of Grace performing. The first is a new song about the student protests, filmed at a suitably apt location. (I believe there's another thread on here on the subject of protest songs; I think people should have a look at this one.) The remaining two are of her performing at Glastonbury. The video quality of the last one isn't good, but I think it gets its message across. Hope you enjoy them.
