No matter what, your words belong to you. Grace VanderWaal forever treasures her connection to words. As a kid, she always held them close and never let go. As a woman now, she finds the ultimate freedom in those words, speaking her mind, heart, and soul without filter through her songs. Audiences initially got to know Grace at just 12-years-old when she parlayed winning America’s Got Talent into her rapid rise as an international artist. Among many accolades, she received the Billboard “Women in Music” Rising Star Award and became “the youngest person ever” to be featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 music list, and starred in the acclaimed film Megapolis from legendary Academy® Award-winning filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola. The singer, songwriter, actress, and phenomenon amplifies the sound of healing scars, shedding skin, and stepping into her power on her 2025 full-length LP, CHILDSTAR. With a pen in hand, she’s writing the next chapter of her story—on her own terms.
