Amber Renee and Graham Marsh are CLAVVS, a Queens-based indie electronic duo crafting songs for the end of the world. At the start of their collaboration, they leaned into the pop format to tell stories that challenged American culture. Now, after two full length albums and EPs, the duo’s songs are sharper and more prescient than ever. “Interference” is their latest offering, and it finds the pair grieving the state of human connection amidst ebullient, buoyant sound. That juxtaposition points to the heart of CLAVVS, a band making complicated songs feel light as air. 

Said Renee of the new track: "Since we last released music, my view of the world has become darker and a lot less trusting. I've lost faith in people, and I’ve witnessed our care for each other actively eroding. This song is about that breakdown of connection. It’s almost as if we’re all in separate realities trying to communicate through a forcefield of our own experiences. Understanding each other is more difficult than ever. Despite this cynicism, I try to hold on to a little bit of hope, and that finds its way into the song somewhere. I want to believe that we can find our way back to each other."

As Marsh continued: "I really love how the optimism of the track juxtaposes with the darker meaning of Amber’s lyrics. And while the song is exploring the disruption in the world most of are feeling, the music gives a small hint of hope that maybe we can come out of the other side in a better place."

CLAVVS has received praise from Consequence of Sound, NPR, Under the Radar, and The Line of Best Fit. Their music has been featured in countless films and TV shows such as Gen V, You, The Sex Lives of College Girls, Uncoupled, Warrior Nun, and Queer as Folk. 

Created in 2020, Turn to Wind Recordings is CLAVVS’ independent, self-run label.
