Macy Gray

From the very first track you will hear a unique voice which is instantly recognizable as one of the most distinctive in all of pop music, the voice of Macy Gray.

The singer-songwriter-performer earned a Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for her 1999 hit single, “I Try,” which also received nominations for Song of the Year and Record of the Year. Her debut album On How Life Is went on to sell more than 7 million copies worldwide. Her second album, 2001’s The Id, produced such intriguing tracks as “Psychopath,” “Sexual Revolution” and “Sweet Baby.” Gray’s worldwide touring led to followings in countries such as Israel, Australia, Spain, Italy, Germany and Holland. Her songs have appeared on the soundtracks of such blockbusters movies as Rush Hour 2, 8 Mile, Chicago and most recently, Denzel Washington’s Déjà vu.

Although BIG is her first album since The Trouble with Being Myself came out in July, 2003, Macy has been anything but idle. As an actress, she’s appeared in several movies such as Spider-Man and Training Day. She created her own high-end women’s clothing line in the Natalie Hinds Collection as well as SNAC for men’s fashion. Her latest project is HUMPS, designing clothing for “voluptuous women,” a joint venture with Interscope Records. The singer has also established her own music school, the M. Gray Music Academy in North Hollywood’s NoHo arts district, which has grown from 12 students to 150 in a little over a year.
Now, Macy Gray is back after nearly four years, with a dynamic new effort that spotlights those classic pipes in a variety of stylistic settings.

She plans to donate a portion of her touring proceeds to the One by One foundation, which cooperates with the Red Cross in supplying aid to victims of the Hurricane Katrina disaster.
