Emerging last year with her debut single ‘Just Like That’ Chelcee Grimes is back with new track - ‘Time To Talk’. A feel god pop anthem that is full of confidence, the song points all in the right directions that Chelcee is a rising talent. 


Your track 'Time To Talk' is out now, what is the meaning behind the title?
The song is based on a true story on a past relationship. I was planning to meet my ex and it was just built up emotion about what was going to happen when I saw her. We both wanted to sit down and clear the air as it ended pretty badly but at the same time I didn’t know what was going to happen. Would we get back together, would We Never see each other again? Whatever the outcome it was for sure, time to talk.

Where was the track recorded? Are there any behind the scenes stories you are happy to share with us?
I wrote it in Copenhagen with Cutfather & Lucas Secon. I got a txt from my ex that day saying “do you wanna meet up tomorrow” and so I was just telling the guys all about the situation and literally wrote the song in 20minutes. Lucas is such a good listener and basically wrote down everything I was saying & we put a melody on it & it was done.

What do you hope your listeners take from the song?
I hope they can relate. I write songs not only for myself but for others to not feel alone. I think majority of people have been in that situation where anxiety, stress, confusion all comes together into one emotion when something is a little hazy. That’s how I felt. I didn’t know what was happening, and no matter the outcome like I said, at least I was going to know where I stood.

Now the track is out there, what next? What are your plans for the next few months?
MORE MUSIC! I’ve chosen my next 2 singles. I’m planning my next tour, which is exciting. I’ve been locked away in the studio what seems like forever. I can’t wait to get back playing live every night!
