Hi! Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet. 

“All I’ve ever wanted to do is sing” is the most common refrain I’ve heard from the singer-songwriters I’ve encountered during my fledgling music career. While a small part of me has always subconsciously shared this sentiment, I never fully grasped how important music was to me—it was simply one of the many things I loved. Thankfully, that changed after college. Two years after graduating, my life had somehow turned into a carousel of tech policy conferences, sweaty business-clad commutes, and politics as usual. This was a far cry from the musical theatre productions, church choir performances, and acapella solos I cherished while in school. I realized that if I allowed it, performing could be confined to my past. But I knew in my bones that I needed music to be a part of my future in a big way. So I chose to quit my corporate job and move to New York to pursue my dream of becoming a singer-songwriter. I know—how cliché.

 

It was that journey that inspired my debut single “Young Woman’s Game,” which I released in May 2025. Dozens of acoustic performances and several part-time jobs later, I’ve never felt more connected to myself or my inner child. For me, this pursuit is about joy above all else. I feel happiest when I’m on stage and connecting with people through my music. It’s hard to put into words how rewarding this experience has been, from the positive feeling I get when sharing my songs to the community I’ve found amongst other artists in the city.

 

Since my debut, I’ve cut my teeth in the NYC indie music scene and performed at venues like Arlene’s Grocery, Pete’s Candy Store, and Brooklyn Music Kitchen. Since March, 2025, I amassed more than 15,000 streams and grown my social media with 350k unique impressions across all platforms.

 

If you’re a dreamer or a wannabe like me, I’d love for you to come along and join my growing community.

 

With Love,

BLEACH is a cutting alt-pop piano ballad that highlights Claire's intimate vocal performance. Her lyrics paint a messy and brutal picture of the pain of scrubbing yourself clean of the damage of a painful relationship. The production is understated while integrating moments of massive emotional release. Her backing vocals are haunt the track throughout. Claire is largely inspired by the confessional lyricism and diverse sonic textures of artists like Phoebe Bridgers and Lizzy McAlpine.
