Clara originates from Brooklyn, New York and her family moved to LA when she was 10 years old which created some discomfort for her.
Her escapism was found when playing the piano and songwriting which remedied her anxieties.
When the pandemic hit in 2020; Clara created a makeshift studio in her home, and she started the process of learning to produce her own music.
While the world was in lockdown; Clara produced her first EP Illusions. Now, we have the joy of hearing her new release Nobody’s Tired.

This correlates with the feeling that we are escaping whilst listening to it.
Clara Lars discusses the song, “‘Nobody’s Tired’ is about wanting to move to an island (“Talk to my fears like a friend/Sell them for money and buy an island”). I thought ‘what if I just moved to an island and ditched everything and everyone?’”
Making music serves as a means for Clara Lars to soothe her anxieties, and her lyrics possess a maturity that transcends her youthful age of 16.
