Based On A True Story finishes with the lead song on the album ‘What Happened’ and is described by Maisy as an ‘in my feels’ song, which is all about being independent and not having to rely on anyone. A perfect finish coming from a true multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter and rising star.
Maisy Grace said, “I can’t quite believe that I am releasing an entire album, and I don’t think I will until I see that its actually out. It’s been such a great experience and I can’t wait for everyone to hear what Kouncilhouse and I have been working so hard on.”
