Clarion is an East Los Angeles trio - Saya Oliva (bass/vocals), Anthony Sanchez (guitar), and Javier Flores (drums) - who emerged from the local DIY scene in 2023 and quickly built a following at the crossroads of shoegaze, noise-rock, post-punk, and Japanese indie rock. Their debut self-titled EP, recorded in a three-day sprint and released in 2024, produced the viral single "Hello Juliet", which racked up over 20 million streams and turned the band from a basement act into a rising name in the alt-rock revival. After signing to Broke Records in 2025, they followed up with the EP Blue Fairy (March 2026), cementing their reputation for abrasive, emotionally raw songwriting that refuses to be polished.
Clarion performed "Hello Juliet" live at Warehouse XI near Boston for FLOOD Magazine's "FLOOD Sessions" video series.
Clarion released their second EP Blue Fairy on March 27, 2026, via Broke Records.
Clarion announced the Blue Fairy EP and shared a music video for the title track, directed by Jacob Butler and filmed at Dynamic Arts North in Los Angeles.
Clarion signed with Broke Records in 2025, and "Hello Juliet" surpassed 20 million streams across platforms.
"Hello Juliet" was averaging 300,000 streams per day at the time of the Blue Fairy EP release.
