Kleo's debut EP out today
Kleo's debut EP is an ode to life in four scenes. The singles "Miss You" and "Beautiful Life" were released earlier this year, and now the EP is completed with the tracks "Broken Hallelujah" and "Lucid".
"All the emotions we experience in our lives are part of a larger, coherent narrative," Kleo explains. And in that way, each song also represents a scene in life that Kleo shares here with us.
"Lucid" is what Kleo calls a "heart song" for the dreamer, and for the aesthete who has big thoughts about life, thoughts that can run wild, and who finds a comfort and a healing power in the silence.
On "Miss You", Kleo's velvety, honest and vulnerable vocals sing of longing and of the memories that haunt you like a movie on your retina, with the message of turning darkness into light and bringing beauty back into your life - even when it seems impossible. In essence, a declaration of love for hope and the healing power of time.
"Broken Hallelujah" is an anthem to the great heartache and to "the one who got away". It's a grand pop song that builds from a lilting and melancholic melody - to finally end in an explosive embrace with Kleo's yearning voice.
"Beautiful Life" is the energetic love anthem to life and to those we love. About believing that the world is a beautiful place where you can lie down in the grass, look at the stars and dream. "Beautiful Life" is Kleo's melodic nod to the great musical voices of the 60s, when love transcended all.
