April Harper Grey, who records as underscores, grew up in San Francisco and started putting music online as a teenager. Her early singles mixed pop, electronic production, and folk-leaning songwriting in a way that picked up a devoted following, and by the time of her first album she was being talked about as part of a wave of young artists blurring hyperpop, indie, and bedroom recording.
