Her realization and existential ideas from her conversations with her mother and her new pet dog, Joanie, brought the themes of Clairo’s much-anticipated second album Sling into focus.
Clairo adopted Joanie to introduce domesticity in her life. Not only is Joanie cradled in her arms on the cover of her upcoming album, but there’s even a track named after her.
In a statement posted on her Twitter account, she also thanked her dog for giving her purpose.
For her, Sling is cozy and introspective. It reflects the changes she wants from life, now that she has matured and has had a taste of fame.
She voices her regrets and talks about putting her mental health first.
Sling is set for release on July 16.
