Following the release of her new single “High,” internationally acclaimed artist and actress Grace VanderWaal has shared the song’s official music video — a mesmerizing visual directed and edited by Palmer Wells, with choreography by Kali Hightower. The film’s movement and imagery echo the emotional rhythm of the track, weaving grounded expression with ethereal detail. VanderWaal’s natural magnetism shines through every frame, creating an intimate and hypnotic atmosphere that invites viewers into her quietly captivating world.
“High” captures the warmth of nostalgia and fleeting moments of bliss through vivid lyrics like “white sugar in iced tea and porch light.” “I went into the studio with no idea what I was going to write,” says VanderWaal. “I just started singing, ‘Do you wanna get high?’ and from there the idea came to make a song about those moments where everything already feels perfect.” The track marks the first new release since her deeply personal album CHILDSTAR, continuing her evolution as an artist unafraid to explore healing, vulnerability, and self-discovery through sound and storytelling.
