History

Sir Chloe began in 2017, when lead singer Dana Foote was a senior at Bennington College. Foote studied music composition. Instead of writing a thesis, Foote opted to create a concert consisting only of original music, forming a band with her brother and close friends. [2] Sir Chloe gained widespread popularity when their song "Michelle" went viral on the video sharing application TikTok. [3] The band released their debut EP, Party Favors, in 2020. [4] [5]

Sir Chloe released a cover of The Velvet Underground's "Femme Fatale" and a new version of "Michelle" in 2021.

In 2022, Sir Chloe released non-album singles "Company" and "Mercy". [6] [7] In 2023, they announced their debut studio album I Am the Dog and shared lead single "Hooves" on February 23, featuring writing and production contributions by John Congleton and Sarah Tudzin of Illuminati Hotties. I Am the Dog was released on May 19, 2023. [8] They toured with Beck and Phoenix during the following summer. [9] In 2024, they released three standalone singles: "Seventeen", "Home Where", and "Over Again", the latter featuring writing contributions from singer Claud. They also embarked on The Savory Tour in 2024 as well. They were also an opening act for American singer Halsey on her fifth headlining concert tour in 2025. [10]

Sir Chloe released the lead single "Forgiving" of their second studio album on May 23, 2025. [11] With the release of the second single on June 24, 2025, they announced that the album, called "Swallow the Knife", would be released on August 22, 2025. [12]
