Canadian-American artist known for her whisper-quiet, boundary-pushing experimental music.
If you'd like to be the first to know when new events are announced, you can follow Claire Rousay below.
Claire Rousay creates in the quiet places between sound and silence, weaving field recordings, delicate instrumentation and intimate sonic detail into deeply emotive compositions. Her work moves fluidly across ambient, musique concrète and experimental terrains, often wrapping whispered voice, piano, strings and processed textures in layers of found sound. Her approach feels like memory made audible, where everyday moments — a door creaking, footsteps, breath — become part of a musical narrative.
Among her notable releases is A Softer Focus (2021), a record that bridged her experimental sensibility with more melodic elements, and Sentiment (2024), her debut for Thrill Jockey, where quiet songs bloom from her distinct sonic world. She also collaborates frequently — for example, No Floor (2025) with More Eaze. Over time she has performed across the US and Europe, cultivating a dedicated following among listeners drawn to subtle sound art in live settings. Through her work, she invites audiences to slow down, listen close, and inhabit emotions they might otherwise miss.
