Atlanta trip-hop / electronica duo CLAVVS have been impressing audiences with their productions and performances which merge trap, indie pop, and ethereal effects together into a sound that feels much bigger than what you might expect from an independent homegrown duo. Certainly, Grammy-winning producer Graham Marsh brings years of experience to the project, but singer Amber Reneé elevates the songs to a higher level with her strong but gentle voice.

To prepare for the release of their debut full-length album, we sat down with CLAVVS and dug into their own descriptions of their musical style, how they met, and what they want their music to mean to people. They are both political activists who carry the ideas in their music far beyond the stage.
