The GRAMMY Museum is thrilled to welcome rising artist Faye Webster to the Museum’s intimate 200-seat Clive Davis Theater for an evening discussing her latest album, Underdressed at the Symphony, her career, and creative process, with a rare, stripped-down performance to follow.
Faye Webster has defined herself as an exciting, singular artist by knowing when to keep it underdressed. Rather than complicate her songs with obtuse, convoluted lyrics, Webster forgoes all that and goes straight to the punch or, when the moment is right, the punchline. “That’s what I think about when I’m writing,” says Webster. “It’s a ‘try less’ situation; don’t overthink it, don’t search for some ‘right words’ when what actually happened is the right thing.” On Underdressed at the Symphony, Webster ignites those specific, small-but-big moments — plainly stated, underdressed themselves – and unlocks their bigger worlds and meanings.
Webster sings her heart out but is almost impossibly low-key about it. Where another artist might take a brutal moment and build it out with brutal sound, Webster does the opposite; Underdressed at the Symphony is spacious and patient, with room to find your story or yourself in the song. Described by Webster’s collaborators as “an analogy for finding yourself out of place”, Underdressed at the Symphony delivers what Webster calls “the relief of being relatable”.
Released in March of 2024, Underdressed at the Symphony has been a watershed moment, debuting as the #1 Billboard Heatseekers and Alternative New Artist Albums, #2 Americana/Folk, #4 Alternative and Rock Albums, And Top 40 Independent. Underdressed… has also notched “best of the year so far” hosannas everywhere from Paste, to Consequence of Sound, to SPIN, UPROXX, Rolling Stone and others. “Lego Ring”, Webster’s long awaited collaboration with Lil Yachty, was a sensation that began with the pair’s childhood friendship and worked its way to the stage at Coachella. With over 45M streams in the US alone, over 6.5M Monthly Spotify listeners and sold out shows from the Ryman to the Greek, she has been hailed as an artist who “defies genre and contention” by Vulture and “a writer of perfect miniatures” by the Guardian. Webster is ascendant, taking her inimitable low-key energy and low-key proving it to myriad new fans across ages and genres.
