Things Are Moving All Around Me is the first physical and highly anticipated second album from rising British songwriter Henry Grace
Moving to California at 21, Grace played his first shows in small coffee houses and clubs in Los Angeles and San Francisco. There he was introduced to the music of artists like Bon Iver and Ray Lamontagne who helped shape his early writing and the songs that would later appear on his 2022 debut album Alive In America.
Things Are Moving All Around Me has been an album years in the making. Grace and Harrison first met at a songwriting retreat organised by Chris Difford at Pennard House in Somerset in 2022. Stealing away to a quiet church across the road, they wrote their first song together and, upon returning to London, started working on a new batch of songs Grace had been writing and soon had the early makings of a new album.
Unlike the stark and sparse arrangements from Alive In America, early demos hinted at a new sound that was more transatlantic and, most noticeably, band- driven with Grace joined by Harrsion on keys and backing vocals alongside Brian Love on guitar, Tom Holder from The Heavy Heavy on bass and Toby Evangelou on drums.
