Clairo Announces Charm Album
Clairo will release her new album Charm, on July 12th. The LP was Co-produced by Clairo and Leon Michels (of The Dap-Kings and El Michels Affair). Along with the album’s announcement, Clairo is sharing lead single “Sexy to Someone.”
Charm is described as a collection of warm, 70’s-inspired grooves that move lithely between jazz, psychedelic folk and soul, an extroverted bounce back from her beloved 2021 album Sling. Charm was tracked live to tape between the Queens-based studio Diamond Mine Recording and Allaire Studios, which is nestled in the mountains outside of Woodstock, NY. Producer Michels, a soul revivalist known for his work with Sharon Jones and The Black Keys, was enlisted to lead the strictly-analogue recording process.
Clairo, is inspired by the classic records of Harry Nilsson and Blossom Dearie, adopted their 20th century recording techniques as part of a musical tradition — in hopes of staving off their obsolescence in the digital age. In Charm, she reprises the live instrumental sounds she first played with in her 2021 album Sling, yet raising an even mightier ensemble of horns, woodwinds and vintage synthesizers, all while infusing the songs with a rhythmic foundation that recalls her debut record Immunity.
