Daylight

"Over the course of her acclaimed career, Grace Potter has carved out a flourishing yet unconventional place among the best songwriters and singers in rock and roll. The Waitsfield, Vermont native has released six albums, guested with everyone from Kenny Chesney to The Rolling Stones, created her own music festival (Burlington's Grand Point North) and become one of the most admired live performers in contemporary music. Now, after a four-year hiatus, Grace returns with Daylight, her second solo LP (seventh overall) and first for Fantasy Records. Produced by her husband Eric Valentine (Keith Urban, Gwen Stefani, Maroon 5) Daylight is a soul-inflected, deeply personal collection of songs that capture a particularly tumultuous and challenging period in her life. Grace wrote the album's 11 tracks with the help of renowned songwriter Mike Busbee (Pink, Maren Morris) who co-wrote ""Love is Love,"" ""Everyday Love"" and the stunningly cathartic ""Release."" Longtime collaborators Benny Yurco and Matt Musty contribute guitar and drums respectively with Benmont Tench and Larry Goldings on keys and background harmonies from Lucius. Earthy and real, Daylight is a resilient rollercoaster of sparkling songwriting and unforgettable performances -- a commanding, career-defining statement of power and purpose from Grace Potter. "
