KLLO SHARE CAPTIVATING VIDEO FOR ‘WALLS TO BUILD’
– WELL WORN EP OUT AUGUST 5 –
‘a pleasant and fluid pop tune that blurs lines between R&B and two-step, with Lam’s production soaring subtly beneath Kaul’s gossamer vocals.’ – Pitchfork
‘As retro-garage exponents go, it’s as exquisite as early Aluna George, with extra experimental flourishes to prove their underground credentials.’ – The Guardian (New Band of the Week)
With the release of their highly anticipated new EP Well Worn (out August 5) just
around the corner Melbourne duo Kllo today share the visual accompaniment for current single ‘Walls to Build’. Premiering via Noisey, the moody and beautiful visual nicely accents Simon Lam‘s synth lines and Chloe Kaul‘s vapor-trailed verses. On the video, Kllo remarks, ‘the clip was filmed on a range of cameras and edited by our good friend Hamish Mitchell. ‘Walls to Build’ brings influence from a lot of different places and we wanted the varying fidelities in the video to reflect how the ideas came together.’

Featuring celebrated singles ‘Bolide’ and ‘Walls to Build’, the progressive and constantly evolving new work on Well Worn speaks of the promise that has been growing since they debuted their first material back in 2014. Reaching the peaks of Hypemachine’s charts, clocking 4.5 million Spotify streams to date,
Within days of its release, ‘Bolide’ had been added to rotation on Triple J, received spins on BBC Radio 1, KCRW & KEXP and became one of the most talked about tracks in the world as tastemakers once again scrambled to champion this exciting, fresh project (as Hypemachine’s Most blogged artist). ‘Walls to Build’ followed soon after, with the likes of Pitchfork, the Fader and Stereogum celebrating the newest cut off Well Worn – a release which has received around 4.5 million streams on Spotify to date.
