Clairo – aka Claire Cottrill – is one of today's most exciting new artists. Within the span of 2 years, the Carlisle, MA-raised artist with roots in Bellevue, WA has catapulted from writing songs in her bedroom to headlining shows and performing at major festivals and TV talk shows. The viral success of her lo-fi pop gem "Pretty Girl" in 2017 served as an introduction to her sound, and she's since established herself as a legitimate force in the pop world thanks to her stunning voice, powerful lyrics, and ability to work within a wide range of styles.

This summer she released her debut album Immunity and is currently on a massive world tour that includes a stop in Seattle at Showbox SoDo on October 8th. Her exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World is a wonderful journey through some of her favorite tracks, both new and old, that spans a wide range of genres – R&B, shoegaze, bossa nova, psych-pop – and sheds light on the influences behind her own versatile music.
