Grace & Moji recently released a vibrant single, "Sad Times"

Prepare yourself to be blown away by the mind blowing tune of “Grace & Moji” latest single “Sad Times”. This husband and wife duo has really outdid themselves in putting together this electrifying anthem of self-discovery. The couple takes you on a roller-coaster of musical excitement, celebrating life’s both sad and happy moments in their tunes. The most shocking aspect of “Sad Times” is that it’s not about sadness at all. Once the protagonist has his nasty little ego-death, and allows the song’s home video footage (a less clear-eyed director might have relied entirely on recreations) to prove that these shitty little disasters were all his own fault, the pants shit, and the missed yoga class and Tito’s pedicure (a disaster, a national tragedy) no longer feel like the sum total of a life that’s not going so well. The Ayahuasca-religion imagery, in other words, isn’t there because he puked in the woods that one time; it’s there to set up a redemption narrative. This song’s central idea — and it is least plausible — is that "Sad Times" have the power to change, and to change back, and to change again until one day they stick as Recovery. And because this is nominally a comedy song, its redemption narrative is broad and lighthearted and also extremely relatable because we all have "Sad Times". We all, pretty often, have "Sad Times". This song imagines that it’s OK. You’re OK! You can clean up this debris. You can heal yourself. You can come out the other side of tragedy with a synthetic rubber duck under your arm, whistling a song. You can. You probably will. You definitely will. Sticking in your head long after the track ends, "Sad Times" is sprinkled with unforgettable lyrical phrases that meld thoughtful introspection and a rallying cry for change. Lyrics like 'I see visions / In the midnight hour / My Spirit spoke and it blew my mind / Said my life’s a mess but I can turn it around’ summarize the song’s themes of self-realization, salvation, and promise of a better future. The musical chemistry between Grace and Moji is undeniable. A classically trained piano and vocal composer with a poetic edge, Grace seamlessly marries her background with Moji's explosive multi-instrumentalist talents and music producer's ear for soulful soundscapes. Together they create an electrifying sound that reaches above and beyond, inspiring listeners to embrace change, seek growth, and be sincere creatures of light in a world that is often painfully artificial. “Sad Times” is a rebellious celebration of music and a testament to the idea that even in the darkest times, we can find the grit to keep dancing, or the resolve to face down whatever evils we encounter in our own lives. Listen on headphones and turn this one up, let it keep you alone and yet in the sweaty club alongside Gideon, feeling the bass in your guts and remembering the way the volumizer always made your hair feel sticky. Close your eyes. It’s your time. Keep dancing, because forces wily and cruel are plotting their next assault.
