There are times when an artist chooses to push boundaries and explore territories that pack a punch to the human psyche. London based, Australian recording artist Kmoto, is all that and so much more. Having spent the last few years since the confines of the pandemic searching internally for her own sense of self, she is about to deliver two tracks from a forthcoming EP that challenge her previous Alt Country palette and which now demand to be heard. Celebrating Valentines Day in her own inimitable style, Kmoto drops the first rambunctious single, ‘A Short Film About Love’ in a fusion of blistering sounds. About her own conflicting emotions around current horrific world/local events, it was written after weeks of listening exclusively to The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and watching films made by Polish film makers, most notably Krzysztof Kieslowski. Those influences make it a head long journey into a thunderous joyride of sounds.

If you are looking for music that really makes you think and delves into ideas that are beyond today’s disposable pop, make sure you seek out Kmoto. A strong, independent woman full of big ideas and music to match. Her next steps will be ones to watch.

A Short Film About Love will be released on all platforms 14 Feb 2025.

The second single from the forthcoming EP is expected to drop in April.
