MORE THAN LUCK: Musician clovers daughter Releases Debut Single
UWEC grad dips her toe into original music after years finding her voice in the local music scene

Noor Shami may go by “clovers daughter” as a musical moniker, but building hype for her first single took more than just luck.
“Are You Coming Home?” is the debut single from clovers daughter, a musical project from Shami, a UW-Eau Claire graduate. The track explores themes of longing, heartache, and the unspoken distance between two people, combining storytelling with atmospheric indie-pop production.
“A lot of my lyrics draw from a sense of emotional distance and yearning for a connecting,” Shami said. “The world that we live in right now often feels empty, so in this song I wanted to capture the feelings of loneliness and displacement in a relationship. It’s a vulnerable state to be in, and I think that comes through in this song.”
Now based in Las Vegas, Shami has been passionately immersed in music for more than a decade. While a student, she regularly performed at open mics at The Lakely and The Plus, establishing herself as an emerging songwriter in the Chippewa Valley. Her style draws inspiration from artists such as Phoebe Bridgers, Lana Del Rey, Novo Amor, Olivia Dean, and more, crafting a sound that is reminiscent of others but still uniquely her own.
"People are constantly feeling complicated feelings, and many people are looking to know they aren't alone in the world. This song will be relatable for a lot of people, and (I) hope it brings them comfort."

Shami chose “Are You Coming Home?” as the first song for clovers daughter because it perfectly encapsulates what she wants to portray in her original music. Her melodies evoke complex feelings of love, loss, and self-discovery. Those feelings are at the forefront of the new song, as Shami describes the deeply personal experience of feeling overwhelmed while losing someone you once envisioned a forever future with.
“This song deals with emotions that almost everyone will go through at some point in their life,” Shami said. “People are constantly feeling complicated feelings, and many people are looking to know they aren’t alone in the world. This song will be relatable for a lot of people, and (I) hope it brings them comfort.”
With her first single out in the world, clovers daughter isn’t slowing down anytime soon. She is currently at work writing an EP and plans to perform this song and others around the country when the opportunity presents itself. “Are You Coming Home?” shows that through perseverance, and a little luck, finding yourself through music just may be possible.
