Dying in the Wool

    I've been proverbially dyed-in-the-wool since at least the fourth grade when my teacher pulled me aside to tell me so. At its best, that trait makes me confident, supportive and secure. At its worst, it makes me stubborn, argumentative and defensive. And usually? I'm living solidly in the middle. At their birth and core, the five tracks on "Dying in the Wool" are letters to myself as a way to process, interrogate, and learn.

I am 24 years old and I don’t like to leave my parent's home I went off for a few years but I don’t like the feeling of being on my own I am 24 years old and my younger brother has more money than me And I don’t sit around I work and I think about how I can be contributing I can’t stop spending my time on things I don’t need My ex said it’s becoming a habit for me I can’t even cry anymore and everything’s worth crying for Now I’m back with a guy who said he didn’t like me But he’s being nice and he said sorry and that’s all I need for now My best friend from high school is married with a baby on the way And I wonder if I’ll ever feel a love like that one day And I don’t even cry anymore I just can’t stop keeping score A rat race A time machine A hamster wheel A day dream A bookmark A checkpoint A restart A highlight A milestone A keynote A picture On a flip phone White honda On i-90 Driving farther from my family White knuckling the steering wheel And you call Feels like a big, big deal

My house burned down the night we met I should have taken that as an omen I should have listened I should have listened A bird flew into my window And it got stuck for a minute, and I knew it was a sign to let go I should have listened I should have listened I should have listened You said I'm easy to read And I thought that that made me happy, but what it really meant was you knew exactly how to hurt me and I know it's not true, but I feel unable to be known and loved at the same time I try But maybe I will never know what that feels like

With provocative and tender lyrics mirrored by a more-than-capable band, Claire proves herself as someone who wants to cut to the core. The EP was recorded with producer Allen Tate (San Fermin, Wild Pink, Daisy the Great) at Better Company Studios in Brooklyn, New York.
