Associated with soft, intimate vocals, daydreamy atmosphere, and rumination, Clairo is the stage name of singer/songwriter Claire Cottrill. Often coloring keyboard or guitar accompaniment with samples and sound effects, the Boston native began sharing dozens of her stylized but sparse, melody-driven recordings to music-sharing sites as a young teen in 2013. She eventually had a minor viral hit with 2017's "Pretty Girl," and a bigger one with "Flaming Hot Cheetos," whose video garnered millions of views in 2018. Officially dropping the "bedroom" from bedroom pop, Clairo made her full-length debut with the Rostam-co-produced Immunity in 2019. 2023's Sling, a more richly arranged sophomore album, cracked the Billboard 200 Top 20; the next year's entirely analog-recorded Charm found her digging into '70s soul and soft rock sounds with the help of the Daptone records crew. After releasing dozens of accumulated home recordings in 2013, Clairo issued the EP do u wanna fall in love? in 2014. She followed it with more EPs in 2015, including have a nice day, late show, AQUARIUS BOY, and moth girl. In May of that year, the full-length metal heart offered a collection of spare acoustic recordings with notable tape hiss. Meanwhile, she became active on social media with video posts that included acoustic guitar covers of songs by the Cure, Frankie Cosmos, and Alex G, among others. The year 2016 brought the creased laundry EP and the six-track brains a bus station, which introduced new equipment including electric guitar, various keyboard voices, and drum samples. In July of that year, she also delivered a split EP as Claire Cottrill with English lo-fi musician Keel Her. In December 2016, the song "How Was Your Day?," a collaboration with Mellow Fellow, presented a richer indie pop sound with extended chords and a full arrangement of guitar, keyboards, drums, and vocal harmonies. Further establishing herself as a proponent of dreamy reflection, Clairo was featured in 2017 on no less than three atmospheric indie electronic pop singles: "Girl" by Brennan Henderson, "You Might Be Sleeping" by Jakob Ogawa, and "Froyo" by Hans. Also that year, her like-minded song "Pretty Girl" was featured on the Father/Daughter Records cassette compilation The Le Sigh, Vol. 3, and she had a second viral hit with the keyboard ballad "Flaming Hot Cheetos." Both songs received a commercial release by the FADER Label in mid-2017. An official video for "Cheetos" followed in March 2018 and was covered by such media outlets as Pitchfork, NPR, and Billboard. Still in her late teens, Clairo followed it a month later with a funky, more fully produced single, "4EVER," which saw her collaborating in the studio with Ashwin Torke, Deaton Chris Anthony, and Burns Twins. Singles including "Drown," a collaboration with Cuco, and "Heaven," from the soundtrack to Skate Kitchen, arrived before the end of the year. Retaining intimacy while adopting a sleeker pop sound, Clairo co-produced her first official album, 2019's Immunity, with Rostam, bringing in guests including drummer Danielle Haim and a children's chorus. The single "Sophia" represented her first appearance in the Billboard Hot 100, and Immunity reached number 51 on the album chart. An arena tour in support of Khalid accompanied the release and was followed by a headlining tour. Adding further texture to her sound with components like vintage keys, Moogs, and layered vocals, Clairo's second full-length, Sling, was co-produced by Cottrill and Jack Antonoff. Released in 2021, it marked her debut for Republic Records and rose to number 17 on the Billboard 200. A series of injury- and health-related developments beleaguered 2022 tours, but Clairo was back to open for Boygenius at the inaugural Re:SET Concert Series in early 2023. That year, she was featured on remixes by Phoenix and Beabadoobee, and she issued her own Live at Electric Lady EP in May. A couple of charity singles, "For Now" (benefitting Everytown for Gun Safety and FOR THE GWORLS) and "Lavender" (for Doctors Without Borders) appeared before the end of the year. Clairo enlisted Leon Michels (El Michels Affair, the Dap-Kings) to co-produce her third album, which they tracked live to tape in Queens and Woodstock, New York, using a cadre of his usual musicians. With a focus on live instruments including horns, woodwinds, and analog synthesizers, and a sound that toggled between warm '70s soul and soft rock, Charm was self-released in July of 2024.

I move so I don't have to think twice I drift and float through counties with my one sided climb Once, I oughta make a choice to move forward I'll take, I'll take a picture for your locker Amoeba Between the gaps I was swimming laps Got close to some epiphany I'll convince a friend to join deep ends Have your toes touch the lack of cement Gather to one corner of the woods Echo chambers inside a neighborhood And centerfold, humility shown You're not as good as what your mama's sewn Aren't you glad that you reside In a hell and in disguise? Nobody yet everything A pool to shed your memory Could you say you even tried? You haven't called your family twice I can hope tonight goes differently But I show up to the party just to leave Between the gaps, keep it under wraps How I got to some epiphany I'll convince myself when it turns to twelve The photos keep the sentiment Gather to one corner of the woods Echo chambers inside a neighborhood And centerfold, humility shown You're not as good as what your mama's sewn Aren't you glad that you reside In a hell and in disguise? Nobody yet everything A pool to shed your memory Could you say you even tried? You haven't called your family twice I can hope tonight goes differently But I show up to the party just to leave Pulling back I tried to find The point of wasting precious time I sip and toast to normalcy A fool's way into jealousy I mock and imitate goodbyes When I know that I can't deny That I'll be here forever while I show up to the party just to leave Partridge You move in your ways without a law And I'll force you to feel the weight I'm standing on But the perfect harmony is lost As I watch you fall awake and ask, "What's wrong? Did I really miss all the work you've done?" (All the work I've done) Calling someone else is only harder I'll explain myself again Take the chance on someone's daughter She makes me feel like I'm the best The only time I see you smile Is after hours or the finish line But bring yourself to the edge Of the cliff And look upon The animals who wake before us at dawn (All the work they've done) Comfortable, unmotivated always Seeking other stories other memories I'm sorry I have to hold you longer than you expected It's only temporary I'll let you walk and make your own discovery That one of these days, I know that you might come back to me Zinnias See me standing on the corner of Comstock And Waverly in a daze Where I saw my brother speak for the first time since he graduated in the Spring Got a cold piece of information to bring to you Said, "Sorry but I can't stay here while we wait for June" I miss the southern Cosmos and the Zinnias Oh, the Zinnias It comes to me in a dream, in the dead heat and the suffocating Wet grip that's got a hold on my mama It's Marietta's kiss Quietly, I'm tempted Sure sounds nice to settle down for a while Let the real estate show itself to me I could wake up with a baby in a sling Just a couple doors down from Abigail My sister, man, and her ring Quietly, I'm tempted Sure sounds nice to settle down for a while Let the real estate show itself to me I could wake up with a baby in a sling Just a couple doors down from Abigail My sister, man, and her ring Blouse Here we are Quiet at your kitchen table With courtesy to little pet peeves Napkins on laps strands pulled back I hang the scarf and my mom's anorak Why do I tell you how I feel When you're just looking down the blouse It's something I wouldn't say out loud If touch could make them hear Then touch me now If touch could make them hear Then touch me now Talking to Some who laugh and others scorned I guess humour could help me after all It's funny now I'm just useless and a whore But I get a co-sign from your favourite one-man show Why do I tell you how I feel When you're too busy looking down my blouse It's something I wouldn't say out loud If touch could make them hear Then touch me now If touch could make them hear Then touch me now If touch could make them hear Then touch me now Wade Holding out all my fears and faults Those that conquer me Started the second pack Before the first ones finishing I like to bridge the gap between A break and long lost lovers Only to get me by until I decide I've had enough Most of the time I can feel them on me The eyes from the stranger's window It's dark and It's lonely But it's nothing to me At least somebody's home Decades are wasting On your name You'll grasp the concept of life When you give up the point of trying If you don't do the things you do They'll just happen to you Pulling out all my weight And do my part and you'll say "Oh I'm so glad you're here with us today You probably thought you would be gone" And until there's another way I just have to face That there's no real place To go where I really could be alone I'd promise you now, that if I had known I wouldn't be standing here There's memories to be made And water that's to wade I used it all up drying tears Of course I don't regret The moments where I wept And yearned for what I've got now It's only time It won't age like wine But It's mine, and I'll take the blow Harbor Okay, I'm finished now And I kept my faith for long enough And I hope I'm old and fairly sober If I'm let down Maybe you keep me around For the constant affirmations While I scrounge for understanding And fall out I'll let you win and I'll let you tie The ribbon to my hair Just so that we could come back to this if we really cared The morning gates stay open If you had a thought that I'd be there (Oh, I'd be there) Know we could use a break Because I can't feel my feet I carried you all the way upstairs So you can sleep and I can think Stand guard When I am near Clinging on to everything you fear Keeping me close While you hold me out and say I don't love you that way Harbor myself away from everyone else I'm half awake and intimate Eyes closed and I'll commit What I wish I had with you I'll pretend until it's true I don't love you that way Swallow the pill, it's only fair that I hear Know myself better than I have in years I don't know why I have to defend what I feel I try Stand your guard When I am near Loathe me until You're reminded of the deal One of us knows When you hold me out and say You don't love me that way Just For Today Honestly, I didn't think I'd end up here this time Or anywhere at all, I'm distant just enough to never fall behind Picturing the saddest scene of wearing bedsheets And two pats on the back, "It just takes time" It's getting late, since when did taking time take all my life Mommy I'm afraid I've been talking to the hotline again It's stirring But the ripples always seek out the ones who carry me I blocked out the month of February for support At least I have this year, I won't be worrying anyone on tour As we speak, I'm here to meet devils for tea Peering 'round the corner of my life I throw my drink into the faces of my demise At thirty Your honey's gonna ask you, "What the hell is wrong with me" And finally An answer from your throat comes crawling and you can proceed Reaper It's nice to hear your voice again I pushed you so far down and I let you sink through the drain There's a claw on my shoulder And she's saying the obvious "You know eventually you're gonna have to be a provider, too" She's coming closer, I can feel her breathe I keep forgetting that I'll have a family If I listen in, with my hands cupped and on my knees I can hear the single obnoxious sigh of relief I'm born to be somebody then somebody comes from me I'll tell you about the Rabbit Moon and when to keep walking I'll spare you pain, I can feel my shame come through that door I can't fuck it up if it's not there at all I'm born to be somebody then somebody comes from me I'll show you where I did swim team and drive to Dunwoody I'll spare you pain, I can feel my shame creep through that floor I can't fuck it up if it's not there at all I can't fuck it up if it's not there at all Little Changes I see the fog as a clean slate There's room for us There's room for anything The usual urge I'd see clear A flower for you and the dogs are near But white light comes from nothing at all For the first time it feels Good Good to fall between The ones I love and the ones that faded He loved me good enough to calm me down But tried to trick me into little changes I see the end before it begins No use to work, no use in anything A crack in the sky The heaven's hand A cloud just for you and a place to land But white noise comes from nothing at all And finally I feel Good Good to fall between The ones I love and the ones that faded He loved me good enough to calm me down But tried to trick me into little changes Management Mom, would you give me a ring One for the ride and one for the magazines She's only twenty-two A flash to the upbringing Of the child, the canine What will become mine Once I decide to leave? Seek to take and give it all away Once you know it's only a maze There could be more days like today Complain to the management About my lack of self respect Fast forward to when I have friends And men who don't interject Harping over old regrets Hating how I let it get To me Only for a short while I'm bound to lose my head And just when I start to think it's ended Another demand commences I'm doing it for my future self The one who needs more attention I'll forget to forgive and hold it all in I'm old with some resentment
