Pittsburgh-bred singer Grace Tandon — pivot from competition-show contestant to genuine pop voice. 'Hide Away' was the announcement, but it was 'Don't Let Me Down' (the Chainsmokers feature, 2016) that won her the Grammy for Best Dance Recording. The catalog ('Sit Still, Look Pretty,' 'In Between Dimensions') is sharper than its radio numbers; the public coming-out and identity advocacy in the late 2010s was overdue and welcome. Underrated as a writer and as a voice with real character.
