Gracie Abrams, a 25-year-old singer-songwriter, has been making waves in the music industry with her impressive vocal talent and heartfelt lyrics. Many music lovers may not realize that they have been hearing her voice for years, as she is the voice behind the catchy phrase “Bad robot!” featured in productions by her family’s company, Bad Robot Productions.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, Abrams comes from a notable lineage in the entertainment industry. She is the daughter of acclaimed filmmaker J.J. Abrams, known for his work on popular television series like Lost and Fringe, as well as blockbuster films such as Cloverfield and Star Wars.

Her music has resonated deeply with fans, notably inspiring Olivia Rodrigo’s breakout hit, drivers license.
In February 2023, she released her debut studio album, Good Riddance, which showcases her growth as an artist and features collaborations with notable musicians, including Aaron Dessner of The National, a frequent collaborator of Taylor Swift. The album’s introspective lyrics and melodic compositions have garnered significant acclaim, further establishing Abrams as a rising star in the music scene.
