About Claire Rosinkranz:
For singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Claire Rosinkranz, gardens have long served as a symbol of complexity. In the hands of the platinum-certified artist, the garden is explored as a place where roots tangle with weeds, beauty and decay blend, and cycles of death and rebirth yield unexpected joys. It’s the guiding metaphor behind her forthcoming release, a sophomore album titled My Lover.
“A garden is a place where life and death both exist together and still look very beautiful,” Claire says. “It’s a place of pruning, picking, watering, blossoming, blooming. All of these exist together and work together.”
It’s this philosophy that can be found at the heart of the upcoming project and in songs like the title track. “Any relationship that stands on love provides an opportunity to be vulnerable,” she says of “My Lover.” “A lot of things get exposed in the process, but because of love, there’s a safe place to explore.”
Music is the soil in which Claire first planted her own seeds of creativity. Raised in a family steeped in the craft — her father a composer who serves as her lead producer and engineer, her grandmother an opera singer, her mother a musician — pursuing music professionally was never a question of if, but how soon. Classical music shaped her early understanding of structure, a trait evident in moments like the intricacy of album opener “My City” and the unpredictable melody line of “Kiss.”
When Claire’s 2020 release “Backyard Boy” achieved wildfire virality, laying the groundwork for her now nearly 2 billion career streams, she stepped into a season of expansive growth that allowed her to take control of her next chapter. The years after the success of “Backyard Boy” were filled with intentionality and honing of her craft. Then, at 19, a health crisis forced her to a standstill — a grinding halt that reframed her relationship with time and interiority. It’s an experience she explores thoughtfully on the album’s song “Chronic.”
Emerging from this time of stillness and writing every song on the album alongside collaborators like Eddie Benjamin, Claire anchored My Lover in trust — in her own instincts, in her family, and in her spiritual foundation. Faith subtly surfaces in moments like “Lucy” and its accompanying apple artwork, but throughout the record, Claire circles the idea that growth is rarely linear. What emerges is a collection of songs that doesn’t rush the bloom, but honors every stage of the garden’s cycle — roots, weeds, dirt and all.
With the album’s moments of humor, relatability, and inventive melodies, My Lover finds Claire opening herself up and stepping into a new season with renewed energy and confidence.
“I follow what feels natural,” she says. “I’m not chasing references or trends, so everything ends up sounding fresh. This is the most honest way I can share myself. If you want to know who I am, it’s all in the music.”
Claire Rosinkranz is a platinum-certified singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist whose music blends indie-pop and alternative influences with sharp melodic instincts and emotional depth. She broke through in 2020 with viral hit “Backyard Boy,” laying the groundwork for a career that has since amassed nearly 2 billion streams worldwide. Raised in a deeply musical family, Rosinkranz began writing at a young age and has developed a catalog balancing the intricacies of classical training with razor-sharp Gen Z insight and vulnerability. Her sophomore album, My Lover, marks her next chapter — one rooted in intentionality and an exploration of growth, complexity, and renewal.
About Elder Island:
When Elder Island went into the studio to record the follow up to their critically acclaimed 2021 album, Swimming Static, they were determined to “turn everything on its head”. The trio are celebrated for their brooding indie-electronica that draws on their Bristol roots, creating vastly detailed and immersive soundscapes. But Hello Baby Okay marks a new era for the band, fuelled by a longing for transcendence and euphoria. An effervescent counterpoint to the current times, their new music is threaded through with a liberated energy, lilting funk-pop guitars, danceable beats and a renewed sense of play. “We wanted the joy to shine through,” they say.
Elder Island’s Katy Sargent (vocals, cello), Luke Thornton (bass, beat-making) and David Havard (guitar, synths, programming) have spent the past decade building a dedicated fanbase on both sides of the Atlantic, with over 375 million streams worldwide. They’re firm festival favourites who’ve played at prestigious venues from London’s Roundhouse to New York’s Bowery Ballroom and who hold the unique ability to straddle both the live and club worlds: in 2022, they pricked the ears of superstar DJs like Solomun, who personally invited them to spin at his Printworks takeover. Across two studio albums and myriad EPs, they’ve crafted a genre-blurring sound world that draws on a sublime combination of strings, far-flung percussion, intricate loops and abstract lyrics.

The trio are celebrated for their brooding indie-electronica that draws on their Bristol roots, creating vastly detailed and immersive soundscapes. But Hello Baby Okay marks a new era for the band, fuelled by a longing for transcendence and euphoria. An effervescent counterpoint to the current times, their new music is threaded through with a liberated energy, lilting funk-pop guitars, danceable beats and a renewed sense of play. “We wanted the joy to shine through,” they say.
Elder Island’s Katy Sargent (vocals, cello), Luke Thornton (bass, beat-making) and David Havard (guitar, synths, programming) have spent the past decade building a dedicated fanbase on both sides of the Atlantic, with over 375 million streams worldwide. They’re firm festival favourites who’ve played at prestigious venues from London’s Roundhouse to New York’s Bowery Ballroom and who hold the unique ability to straddle both the live and club worlds: in 2022, they pricked the ears of superstar DJs like Solomun, who personally invited them to spin at his Printworks takeover. Across two studio albums and myriad EPs, they’ve crafted a genre-blurring sound world that draws on a sublime combination of strings, far-flung percussion, intricate loops and abstract lyrics.

Elder Island’s Katy Sargent (vocals, cello), Luke Thornton (bass, beat-making) and David Havard (guitar, synths, programming) have spent the past decade building a dedicated fanbase on both sides of the Atlantic, with over 375 million streams worldwide. They’re firm festival favourites who’ve played at prestigious venues from London’s Roundhouse to New York’s Bowery Ballroom and who hold the unique ability to straddle both the live and club worlds: in 2022, they pricked the ears of superstar DJs like Solomun, who personally invited them to spin at his Printworks takeover. Across two studio albums and myriad EPs, they’ve crafted a genre-blurring sound world that draws on a sublime combination of strings, far-flung percussion, intricate loops and abstract lyrics.
About Elder Island:
When Elder Island went into the studio to record the follow up to their critically acclaimed 2021 album, Swimming Static, they were determined to “turn everything on its head”. The trio are celebrated for their brooding indie-electronica that draws on their Bristol roots, creating vastly detailed and immersive soundscapes. But Hello Baby Okay marks a new era for the band, fuelled by a longing for transcendence and euphoria. An effervescent counterpoint to the current times, their new music is threaded through with a liberated energy, lilting funk-pop guitars, danceable beats and a renewed sense of play. “We wanted the joy to shine through,” they say.
