Called “electrifying” by The Huffington Post and “phenomenal” by The New York Times, Grace McLean is a multi-hyphenate actor-singer-writer. Stephen Holden of The New York Times proclaims, “Ms. McLean’s voice [is] a flexible instrument with unexpected reserves of power…behind her playful adventurousness lies a well of passion.”

An accomplished performer (and currently on Broadway as President Woodrow Wilson in Shaina Taub’s Suffs), McLean’s songwriting has been praised as, “Savvy” by Vulture, and “Musically complex, dramatically abstract and...intensely intimate in style” by Broadway World.

McLean”s newly-inked record deal to Meridian/ECR Music Group (Sony) has already led to three breakthrough singles from her debut album, My Lovely Enemy, out May 10th. Much like recording-artist contemporaries St. Vincent and Tune-Yards, McLean pursues both the visceral and intellectual on her new album.

Grace McLean is a Writer In Residence at Lincoln Center Theater where her first original musical In The Green was commissioned and produced, received a 2020 Richard Rodgers Award, and a Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Musical. McLean was awarded Best Score from the Brooklyn Film Festival in 2021.
