The track follows the release of her excellent recent single ‘Cali’

With the release of the stirring and ethereal ‘Love = Cost’, exciting DIY artist Clea continues to showcase exactly why so many are excited about her and her sound, creating a track that is packed full of fun melodies, personality, and her distinctively alluring and captivating charm throughout.

The track explores a relationship that is taking a serious toll on you both physically and emotionally, causing for sleepless nights and stress due to its unpredictable volatility. Rather than cutting it quits though, the track is a call to compromise, to put the work in and be present when it comes to making things work. The synth-laden nature of the sound and its sheer, euphoric catchiness does a great job of smoothing some of the edges of a narrative shrouded in chaos, and offers a pleasant reminder of why we put the work in and sacrifice so much for love in the first place.
