Breakout artist grentperez officially releases the deluxe edition of his debut album, Backflips in a Restaurant, via Fast Friends and AWAL. The expanded release includes three brand-new tracks: “Girl at the Station (feat. Jeremy Passion),” “Peace of Mind,” and “Might Not Be,” further enriching the already genre-bending body of work that fans across the globe have come to adore.
grentperez, whose signature style fuses dreamy bedroom-pop with R&B, indie-folk, and soft-rock influences, explains the quirky yet meaningful inspiration behind the album title: “Where would be the worst place to do a backflip? A restaurant. Perfect.” Yet, he shares that restaurants, much like his album, are spaces full of flavors, people, and memories.
With the deluxe release of Backflips in a Restaurant, grentperez shows remarkable evolution—not only vocally, but sonically. The tracklist spans heartfelt ballads to groove-heavy R&B cuts, spoken rap, and nostalgic ’70s-inspired melodies. It’s a musical experience that provides both longtime fans and new listeners with “a taste of what’s to come.”
Since his debut with the viral hit “Cherry Wine,” grentperez has garnered over 500 million streams, toured with artists like Laufey and Rex Orange County, and recently clinched the Emerging Songwriter of the Year award at the 2024 APRA Awards. With his top streaming markets including the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia, this deluxe release promises to cement his rising global stardom.
