Melanie A. Davis/Kathryn O'Shea/Official Claire

Melanie A. Davis is an alt-folk artist from west Kentucky. Her music blends jazz-inspired vocals, fingerstyle guitar, and insightful lyrics that range from hopeful to sardonic and back again. She's currently touring her new record, Noctalgia, which features her full-band outfit, Melanie A. Davis & The Madness.

Official Claire is one of Chicago’s finest new songwriters. Her songs possess calm confession, playful sarcasm, and poet's eye for detail- all on top of memorable, swaying hooks. Claire is also a calm shredder of guitar. Her solos find catharsis- gritty and delicate, all in one swoop.

Official Claire's latest studio offering, Midnight Dickbiter, was recorded last winter, and features five remarkable new compositions. CHIRP radio has recently featured the ep in their regular rotation. Claire played and engineered the majority of instruments.
