Grady - Koala

If she doesn't pass the mom vibe check it'll never work, so I always get it out of the way as early as possible. Pretty much as soon as I catch a vibe with someone I always try to introduce them to my mom. Koala came out of a time I was on mushrooms and felt like I really needed someone to hold, and in my state she became my eucalyptus tree, and I her koala. I was living in the valley, in an apartment with my friends Emma and Cole and feeling pretty damn free, and I wrote and made the whole song in my two twin beds that were pushed together to form one large faux king bed. My buddy Andrew Luce who mixed the song lived in an apartment in Hollywood, and I'd go over there to polish it and hang. When it was pretty much ready to be pressed to vinyl I made the weird little outro on his couch and threw it on the track.

Koala was my favorite song I'd put out when I released it, and I took my mom on vacation to Kauai to celebrate its release at the beginning of 2020. I'm stoked to be putting it up into the ether world.

Winner will receive a 1/1 Koala merch piece.
