Caroline Polachek is a rising star that has taken a long path to that rise. Originally a founder of Chairlift, she has had a lot of irons in the fire, including a stint where she released music under the name Ramona Lisa.
She finally claimed her own name in 2017, and it's been a rise of electro-pop-rock since. She's made innovative music, both by herself and with other artists.
This, the fourth single from her album Desire, I Want To Turn Into You, (which is a great album and you should listen to it. Top 5 of mine in 2023), is described by Polachek - who also co-wrote the song - as "bratty". I don't get that - but I do get a dreamy feeling (she spent a lot of her youth listening to Enya - no joke).
This song opened her set on tour in 2023.
Here she is performing the song on the Tonight Show in 2023. Most of the performance is dark and clearly played with a backing track (and clearly sung by her), but at 3:20, she pulls out a guitar and plays...
At Glastonbury, she was backed by a full band and the performance was dynamic.
