City Builders, the project of Toronto-based artist Grace Turner, shares her brand new single Vengeful Spirit, a powerful, spooky, and harmonically rich anthem that reclaims the narrative around heartbreak, ghosting, and female rage.
This confident and gritty alt-pop/rock gem captures what happens when personal pain transforms into collective empowerment. Inspired by a conversation with another woman unknowingly dating the same emotionally unavailable man, Vengeful Spirit is a reminder of the power in women sharing their stories. I am loving how passionate and confident Grace Turner’s vocals are, soaring effortlessly over the punchy and gritty alt-pop production. I am particularly fond of the soaring guitar riffs and how they are nicely paired with killer beats and rich electronic textures that come together to create a confident and empowering anthem!
Communication is one of women’s strongest tools, and I think that people fear its power by belittling it as “gossiping” or “starting rumours.” In some cases, raised concerns save lives and I hope that this song can encourage changing the narrative on women exchanging information and experiences.
