Kleo releases new single "Boys"
Kleo surrenders to desire on her new single “Boys”. The single arrives as a soundtrack to the last summer nights: dusty, warm, and full of longing. It also touches on the darker side of desire — where it doesn’t lead to real love, but repeating habits resulting in despair.
“The real tragedy here is constantly chasing the romantic quick fix to escape your emptiness. The question I ask myself is: How do I want to act in this world? A world where you either pull the rug out from under others — or pull it out from under yourself,” Kleo says, and continues:
“”Boys” is the most unfiltered song I’ve ever written. It was written during a time when I was deeply aware of my own decadence. I was knowingly walking into the fire.”
The music video for Kleo’s single “Boys,” directed by Wilian Juul Gudmand-Høyer, pays homage to vintage American cinema, mirroring the song’s sense of longing. It also captures the sense of everyday magic that lies in the heart of Kleo's music.
