Slake
Like a sword pulled from the sea, Slake’s front person Mary Claire has a voice and song that exists in the realm of ancient lore, forbidden love, and quenched thirst. This bay-area-based artist moves and performs along the water’s edge, creating a melodic sense of belonging in the transient nature of each story crafted.
The current iteration of their tune has grown from Mary Claire’s self-titled singer-songwriter days. After tracking their upcoming record during a hot hot summer in the Hudson Valley, Slake’s debut album Let’s Get Married has distilled the sonic quality of their performance to carve out and embody a genre that can only be defined as lesbian doom-folk.
The presence of their live set has transformed over the years into something more clairvoyant, something with a crunch, something soft with teeth - like a walk through fall leaves with a long-distance lover. Slake performs like how you've always dreamt that first kiss might feel
