Coco & Clair Clair have announced their new album Girl will drop on August 30th. with the news, the duo has dropped new single “Aggy.” “We’re singing about leaving our cares behind and having a good night. No worries and no drama, just some good old-fashioned loving with your friends, your crush, your partner, whoever. What happened to having fun??” The album follows previous release SEXY and SEXY (Deluxe Edition), which included “The Hills (feat. DEELA)” remixed by George Daniel of the 1975, “Pop Star” reimagined by Chaeyoung from the KPop sensation TWICE, and an Empress Of remix of “Cherub” as well as remixes from Lewis OfMan, Homeshake, Clip, Niko B, and more.

Speaking about the project Coco and Clair note, “In the early stages of our writing process we had a running joke about being pregnant with a new album and how this one felt like a baby girl, whereas our last project, ‘SEXY’, felt more like a baby boy. We were writing about our relationships, referencing and incorporating lyrics we had written years ago – lyrics previously put aside for being too vulnerable or confessional. We were experimenting with a style of production that felt more refined, polished, intentional, and intimate. We embraced the tension between that new approach and the characteristic qualities that propelled us early on: our resourcefulness, boastfulness, and flamboyance – all virtues of femininity and girlhood as much as they are tropes of masculinity. We listened to music that we felt exuded that same tension; Saint Etienne, Brandy, Everything but the Girl, Lana Del Rey, Club 8, Milky, and Madonna were huge inspirations both sonically and visually. We entered this new phase as closer friends and collaborators – more in tune with each other and ourselves, with newfound access to parts of our creative psyches that we hadn’t yet brought into Coco & Clair Clair. We worried less but cared more, which felt powerfully feminine.”

Growing up in the suburbs of Atlanta, Coco was an only child, so she turned toward the internet to find her community and ultimately found an outlet for self-expression, “I didn’t have anyone to vibe with at home, so I would just vibe online a lot, and I got into music through MySpace. I would make music videos for friends, and then I started making beats.” Clair adds, “I always wanted to be a singer but I don’t think I ever thought I would actually be one.” Her natural love for music was aided by her father. “I learned a lot about music through my dad driving me to school,” she says. “He would always play me music in the car that I had never heard.” Toward the end of high school Coco and Clair met through mutual friends on Twitter and would soon influence and teach each other.
