Kerli Unveils Artwork for New EP UTOPIA

Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and producer KERLI has now made available the artwork for her upcoming EP, UTOPIA (Island Records). The futuristic concept was created in collaboration by photographer Brian Ziff and artist Natalie Shau, with costuming, hair and make-up by KERLI. Check it out to the left!

"The overall vision for UTOPIA was somewhat of a mix between fantasy, future and ancient China," says KERLI, "all of it soaked in a pastel space sauce to capture the uber positive energy of the music."

Also leading up to the March 19 release date of UTOPIA, KERLI premiered another track on Perez Hilton this week. "Love Me Or Leave Me" is one of the heartfelt ballads, of which says Perez, "Kerli pours those sweet melodies in our ears and we simply can't stop slurpin' them UP!...We ADORE this new KERLI tune! Not only is it pretty as f*ck, the lyrics tell a heartbreaking story and her killer vocals remind us of Sia, which is NEVER a bad thing. Plus, "Love Me Or Leave Me" is rather different from her previous clubtastic, ass-shaking songs, which only proves her versatility as an artist! SO many hearts, KERLI!"
