“Amateur” and “unfinished”: the strange rise of Grimes’ breakthrough album Visions
The album that made her name.

Grimes is a Canadian musician, singer, songwriter, producer and visual artist whose genre-defying music has made her one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary pop. Emerging from Montreal’s independent music scene in the early 2010s, she gained international recognition through albums such as ‘Visions’, ‘Art Angels’ and ‘Miss Anthropocene’, blending electronic music, synth-pop, dream pop, industrial and experimental influences.
In addition to writing, producing and engineering much of her own work, Grimes has directed music videos and created visual art, establishing a multidisciplinary creative identity. Her futuristic aesthetic, innovative production techniques and interest in technology and artificial intelligence have made her one of modern music’s most influential and unconventional artists.
