For their second full-length album, Under My Umbrella, Miss Grit has lifted the lid on their internal world, lasering in on the anxieties and heartbreak of the past two years, following their acclaimed debut Follow the Cyborg.
On this album, Margaret Sohn – aka Miss Grit (they/she) – channels the noirish atmosphere of classic trip-hop bands, while adding a hefty dose of maximalism and a dream-pop sensibility. The title is a nod to the iconic Rihanna song and embraces Sohn “…letting people in more on this record and trying not to shy away from that. I’m leaving the cyborg behind, I’m letting it all out.”
This record started to take shape when Sohn returned from an intense touring schedule where they’d driven themself around North America totally alone. When they returned home, Sohn found themselves yearning to capture that specific, less restrained energy of playing live.
Under My Umbrella not only presents Sohn’s gift for complex production, but also the boldness of finding your voice, and ultimately is about coming to terms with yourself, your imperfections, and your complex interior world.
Available on limited-edition crystal clear vinyl and CD via Mute.

“New single ‘Tourist Mind’ steps into a fresh chapter, an atmospheric return with the heaviness of Massive Attack circa ‘Mezzanine’ but with a distinctly modern feel” - CLASH
“Tourist Mind sonically channels the likes of Goldfrapp and Portishead as a dreamily cinematic string arrangement is paired with oscillating synth bleeps, stomping and propulsive industrial techno-like beats.” - Joy of Violent Movement
“'Tourist Mind’ opens with a swirl of cinematic strings, and it locks into a thumping synthpop beat, with smears of dreamy guitar coming in on the chorus.” - Stereogum
