2 mins read

 Loren Kramar releases the third single off of his upcoming debut album Glovemaker out April 26 via Secretly Canadian. It follows the “lush, biting, opulent” (Stereogum) ‘Hollywood Blvd’ and the “velvet-smooth” (Interview) title track. ‘I’m A Slut’ is an ambitious, self-assured anthem about pursuing passion despite any obstacles. The clip for the song may go down as indie’s most expensive video, filled with a trio of Birkins and choreography by Julia Crockett.

Of Glovemaker, Kramar explains, “the album is about the skins we craft to be seen by the world, and Kramar reminds us that we are all in drag, all exposed, no matter what gloves we slip on.” At the heart of these songs is an irrepressible desire to be known. Kramar is a showman and you hear it in his words: blistering truth, drama, urgency. Glovemaker explores love and loneliness, dreams and promises, everything Los Angeles dangles. 

Kramar’s music is a testament to the sheer beauty of his voice, characterized by a warm, confident timbre reminiscent of Old Hollywood legends. With a penchant for grand, dramatic melodies, Kramar channels the likes of his former tourmate, Father John Misty and Lana Del Rey, seamlessly intertwining celebration and critique of the enigmatic world of fame, glamor, and artistry.
