Lefuturewave is a music blog based in the Netherlands. We feature emerging as well as established artists.

CLAVVS is a duo of accidental best friends. Amber Renee and Graham Marsh might never have met if not for a last minute text invitation to a stranger’s house party. Conversations were shared. Jokes were made. Tunes were played. Soon the pair were writing the songs that would ultimately become their first CLAVVS singles.

The Brooklyn-based indie pop duo just released the deluxe edition of No Saviors.

Half Moon is a track from the project and and it sounds awesome. I like the powerful synths. Besides, the vocals are sublime. Furthermore, I am also a fan of the solid chorus and bright atmosphere.

The single is accompanied by a fantastic music video, directed by Julia Ngeow.

On the video, Amber describes, ”Half Moon is about the hope of returning to lost love and the cycle of that never-ending dance. In the same way that the moon disappears just to reappear, this song is about that perpetual movement of feeling— joy into pain, loss into love. For the video, we wanted to express that circular pattern through a dance narrative.

I’m bisexual, and since that part of my identity often gets erased, I chose to feature two female dancers as a way to make space for that part of myself. This song and its story also have a strong feminine quality to me, and the dancers, Matilda Sakamoto and Eloise Deluca, captured that feeling with such tenderness and urgency. It’s a story about forgiveness and redemption. Ultimately, love is a dance we all do over and over again, whether with our partners or with ourselves.”

CLAVVS always makes good music. Half Moon is a true masterpiece. Start streaming it now!
