This success propelled Clara to fully commit to her musical aspirations, leading her to perform at renowned New York venues like Rockwood Music Hall, The Sultan Room, and Littlefield, where she has steadily built a loyal following.

Clara’s latest single, "Parentheses," is not just another song but a significant chapter in her artistic journey. The release of its accompanying music video marks her first venture into visual storytelling, promising to deliver the same depth and intentionality that her fans have come to expect. The video is expected to further cement Clara’s status as a dynamic and versatile artist who defies genre boundaries.
