YOU KNOCKED ON MY DOOR TO SEE THE STARS IS AN INTIMATE AND VISCERAL EP BORN OUT OF HEALING AND IMPATIENCE, WHERE TRACE IS RADICALLY COMMITTED TO BUILDING HER TRANSGRESSIVE POP UNIVERSE. EVERY SONG IS A VICIOUS TRIP FULL OF UNEXPECTED TWISTS AND TURNS, EXPLODING GENRES, SHOOTING HOOKS, AND MELODIES GRACEFULLY HELD TOGETHER BY HER GLISTENING PRODUCTION AND BEAUTIFUL VOCALS AND WORDS. IN THREE FASTPACED SONGS, TRACE TELLS A COMPLEX QUEER LOVE STORY IN FAST-FORWARDS, REWINDS, PRAYERS, AND DREAMS. FOLLOW HER TO THE END OF THAT LOVE STORY, TO THE OUTSKIRTS OF BODILY AND MENTAL INTEGRITY INSIDE LOVE, INTIMACY, AND ATTACHMENT. THE AUDIENCE CAN FEEL TRACE AND HER TRANS* BODY AND SOUL CONSTANTLY BEING UNDONE AND YET EMERGING AGAIN AND AGAIN IN ANOTHER SWEEPING MUSICAL MOMENT THAT SEEMS TO KEEP HER AFLOAT.
