Renowned for her classically emotive yet modernist sound, enigmatic composer, producer, and singer Clara La San returns today with an ethereal new song release, “Things You Didn’t Know”, leading up to her debut album Made Mistakes, out June 7 via her imprint CLS Music (on AWAL Recordings). With hypnotic melodies and a lush, bass-driven beat, "Things You Didn’t Know" finds Clara confiding in herself at a time of heartbreak. What emerges is a sense of palpable yearning as Clara's music weaves together a rich tapestry of diverse influences: from the sultry undertones of 90s trip-hop to the cutting-edge soundscapes of contemporary electronic music. Listen HERE and presave Made Mistakes HERE. “Things You Didn’t Know” follows singles “Talking to You” and “Don’t Worry About It”, released with striking and visceral videos directed by Actual Objects (Dua Lipa, Caroline Polachek, Bad Bunny). The songs mark Clara’s first new music since the 2023 re-release of “In This Darkness”, which garnered hundreds of millions of plays across streaming services, earning her solo sound a rightfully due nod. In April, Clara was also revealed as one of only two features on hitmaker Bryson Tiller’s forthcoming self-titled album. While her music is steeped in a holistic listening of myriad musical strands—from early aughts R&B to contemporary rap instrumentals—Clara La San braids her influences with inspirations from cinema scores and up-to-the-second sound design, also thanks to additional production provided by Yves Rothman (Amaarae, Blondshell, Yves Tumor) and mixing by the iconic Tony Maserati (Mary J Blige, Beyonce, Lady Gaga) to express a singular style of electro-soul and pop. Her palpable style is matched by a rare ability to conceive top-line vocal melodies, layered in blushing harmonies that instantly imprint on the memory and have kept her growing and devoted fanbase, including many other artists and peers, returning for more. Clara La San deploys her enviably natural feel for extended melody at the service of telling stories borne from lived experience. Her discreet, observant skill at divining sensual poetry from everyday life has only grown more notable since early guest vocal appearances prompted her to front her own mixtape. Good Mourning, co-produced with UK electronic producer Jam City, was released in 2017, and since deleted from DSPs - only adding to the mysterious allure weaved across her persona. Subsequent songwriting credits for Yves Tumor and Bicep have proven her range and unleashed Clara La San’s confidence in a solo sound that speaks to her maturity and dare-to-differ approach to working in the music industry. |
