For just over a week now we’ve graced KUTX’s airwaves with our February 2022 Artist of the Month Chief Cleopatra, the Corsicana, Texas-born singer-songwriter who conjures a seductive concoction of rock, psychedelia, and soul. That’s not to say that Cleo’s a complete stranger to KUTX, considering her appearances on The Breaks and genre-bending performance during their 2020 Summer Jam, both following the release of her 2019 debut EP.
In the short time since then, Chief Cleopatra’s ascended to a higher plane, now harnessing even more impressive celestial interpretations. You’ll hear those refined spirits on Chief Cleopatra’s upcoming EP Luna, out March 4th, plus appearances from fellow KUTX favorites Curtis Roush and Jack O’Brien (of Bright Light Social Hour) as well as Song Confessional host/multi-instrumentalist/producer Walker Lukens. Hopefully you’ve already made acquaintances with Luna‘s lead single “Friends”, because the album’s sophomore offering “Fortuity” (and its music video, which just premiered over at Flood Magazine) is here!
