Grade 2 Reveal Fourth Studio Album “Talk About It”

Grade 2 have today release their fourth studio album, Talk About It, via Hellcat Records, that captures a defining chapter of growth for the band, shaped by touring through uncertainty, navigating relationships at home while building momentum on international stages, and channeling personal struggles into direct, honest songwriting. Talk About It is an unflinching chronicle of everything the band has lived through: the near-collapse of touring during COVID, the surreal experience of sharing festival stages with Rancid and Slipknot, the quiet dissonance of returning home between runs, and the emotional weight of relationships sustained across long distances. This is an album that digs deep into love, loss, mental health, and the slow work of growing up in public.

“The title-track was initially called Communication, a song about how men don’t talk about the things that really matter to them. But it became ‘Talk About It’, which sums up the whole album, touching on every emotion that you feel while being in a band, from love to loss to personal turmoil to ambition. It’s a coming-of-age story about Grade 2 entering adulthood.” (frontman Sid Ryan)

Grade 2 are currently on tour in the UK with European dates scheduled throughout spring and early summer. The run spans Ireland, the UK, mainland Europe, and festival appearances, marking one of their most extensive touring periods to date. You can view Grade 2‘s tour dates and purchase tickets here.
