Grace released her first EP in 2021. Everybody Wants to Know Molly features the singles "Here I Am," "Love's Made a Fool of Me," and "Sunday Dinner." "What if I?," is a lighthearted song that explores the concept of post-breakup self-acceptance while incorporating the names of common grocery stores like Whole Foods, Kroger, CVS, and Publix.Throughout 2022, Grace released several more singles such as "Not the One," Woman's Intuition," "Sweet September," and "Ghostin'."

The next month, "Lady Lady," "Back in '08," and "Cancel my Plans" were released together. "Lady Lady," the titular single of these three explores themes of romantic attraction to women.
Grace embarked on her first headlining tour in February 2024 to promote her upcoming EP, Lovesick. The Lovesick Tour was scheduled for eight cities across the United States. This was Grace's first headlining tour, featuring other artists such as Marielle Kraft. Grace credited the ability of social media to promote her music for giving her the notoriety needed to headline a tour. As an up-and-coming artist, Grace had been left to promote her music through social media platforms such as TikTok and Instagram. Grace expressed frustration regarding this system in an interview with The Berkeley Beacon, while still recognizing its ability to provide new artists great exposure. She specifically noted how well social media algorithms promote her "upbeat" songs, but not acoustic songs and ballads.
Later that year, Grace released the live album The Lovesick Tour: Live and featuring recordings of live performances on the tour in Boston and New York City.
In May 2024, Grace won the 2023-2024 Belmont Pop Showcase, a college-run music festival at Belmont University.
Grace's second EP, Lovesick, was released in November 2024 including the singles "Lover," If I Never Told You," and "Lovin' on You." This extended play was more heavily influenced by pop, funk, and soul than its predecessor, with Grace citing Earth, Wind and Fire, The Temptations, and Stevie Wonder as inspirations for songs.
