Mallrat is Grace Shaw, a Brisbane singer and rapper born in 1998 who makes bedroom pop that sounds like it's been left out in the afternoon sun: soft, hazy beats, sing-song half-raps and a sweet tooth for melody that never quite hides the melancholy underneath. She started putting out EPs in 2016 with Uninvited, and the 2018 follow-up In the Sky is where it clicked, with "Groceries", "Better" and "UFO" turning small, everyday moments into daydreams you can hum.
Driving Music came next in 2019, and "Charlie" is the standout, a slow-glowing, tender little thing that proved she could do hush as well as bounce. Triple J's audience took to it hard, and "Nobody's Home" and "Rockstar" kept her in that crowd's good books into the new decade. She finally delivered a full-length debut, Butterfly Blue, in 2022, and the follow-up, Light hit my face like a straight right, made the ARIA chart in 2025.
