Hi Claire, I didn’t realise that you uploaded “live atCMC”. I listened it this Sunday morning and it touched me. So beautifully interwoven between what I feel inside and what is going on outside of me. Thanks for this unusual piece. Pietro

Live Performance for CMC Multilocation Festival on July 16th, 2021
San Antonio, TX-based sound artist and musician claire rousay has risen to prominence over the past few years with a body of work that’s strange, diverse, and often somewhat confessional. Her discography encompasses exuberant solo percussion recordings, elusive assemblages of field recordings, warped pop, and what she has come to term “emo-ambient.” In a recent feature in the New York Times she declares “I basically record my whole life”, and one catches fragments of mundane exchanges or peculiar auditory phenomenon she happened to record threaded throughout her compositions. rousay’s music is potent and disquieting despite tending often to favour unostentatious dynamics and timbres, instead commanding engagement through its acute sense of place, disarming vulnerability, and even wry humour.

Probably the greatest album of all time. A groundbreaking 6 and 1/2 hours of the musical progression of dementia. Truly beautiful and utterly terrifying. It makes you appreciate your sanity and life so much more after listening. Jacqueline Jones
An irresistibly catchy mix of lo-fi house and juke, the bouncy rhythms on SECAT's latest could soundtrack any bedroom dance party. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 7, 2022
