Claire Pommet grew up in the Lyon area. She learned music theory from the age of 6, joined a children's choir, La Cigale de Lyon, at age 7, and learned to play the cello at age 8. Her mother plays the flute while her father, a real estate agent, listened to Michel Polnareff, Serge Reggiani, and Charles Aznavour. One of her father's friends introduced her to American folk and country music. She is self-taught and publishes videos on the YouTube web platform.

In September 2017, at the age of 21, she performed for the first time at La Boule Noire in Paris. In October she released her first chanson française album, titled À peu près; it was described as a mixture of pop and folk by Salome Rouzerol-Douglas in Le Figaro. It was "very encouraging" according to Gilles Renault in Libération, while Marie-Catherine Mardi of RFI said that "the lyrics do not convince [in their entirety]" but praised Pommet's voice. The journalists of Libération and Le Figaro emphasize the quality of her live performances, during which she particularly plays the autoharp and the guitar.

Pomme performed in the first part of the Asaf Avidan tour in autumn 2017. In February 2018, she performed at the Café de la Danse in Paris, after having performed as an opening act for Louane and Vianney, then took the stage in La Cigale in mid-2018 and in La Trianon in early 2019.

The lyrics she writes often evoke themes of love, death, and "everyday situations that resort to romanticism". Love, in her lyrics, is not only heterosexual but also bisexual or homosexual; she dedicates a song to Quebec singer Safia Nolin, who used to be her partner. She explained to Télérama: "I am naturally comfortable with my homosexuality, for example, using female pronouns in my songs. And I think it's important, given the amount of thank you messages I get. As a teenager, I would have also liked to recognize myself in lesbian singers".

In 2020, she won the Victoires de la Musique award for album révélation ("newcomer album") of the year with her second studio album Les failles. In 2021, she was crowned artiste féminine ("female artist") of the year.
