New York, NY (Top40 Charts) After generating over half-a-billion streams and topping off multiple year-end lists in 2020, Gen Z singer-songwriter Claire Rosinkranz is back with a brand-new single entitled "Frankenstein" today via slowplay/Republic Records.
Southern California singer, songwriter, ballerina, and multi-instrumentalist Claire Rosinkranz grafts the Gen-Z coming-of-age experience onto quirky D.I.Y. soundscapes often cooked up by her dad in the garage. Within a year, the 17-year-old phenomenon has eclipsed over half-a-billion total streams and received widespread acclaim courtesy of Rolling Stone, Variety, Coup de Main, Buzzfeed, Genius, and more. OnesToWatch championed her as one of its "Top Artists To Watch in 2021," while New York Times and Billboard named her breakout anthem "Backyard Boy" among "The Best Songs of 2020." Speaking of "Backyard Boy," it inspired over 3 million TikTok videos and fueled the trailer for Amazon's The Map of Tiny Perfect Things. Along the way, she collaborated with the likes of Jeremy Zucker, Role Model, and
Clinton Kane and earned the support of
Olivia Rodrigo, Tai Verdes, Lexi Jayde, and 347aidan. Now, she presents an unfiltered perspective on being a teen through her 2021 sophomore EP introduced by the lead single "Frankenstein."
"Frankenstein" marks Claire's first collaboration - with M-phazes, Chelsea Lena, & artist Lexi Jayde. Another quirky and catchy bop, cowbell holds down the guitar-laden beat as Claire adds her own 21st century spin to the song inspired by The Cardigans' classic 90's hit "Lovefool." She immediately shocks pop back to life with the hook, "Guess, I gotta build my Frankenstein."
About the track, she shared, "I imagine somebody who's been in a bunch of past relationships, and they haven't worked out for whatever reason. The guy is just too egotistical. So, you're fed up and actually try to Frankenstein your perfect boy together. It's honestly innocent, carefree, and cute."
The song heralds her forthcoming sophomore EP—due out this summer.
