KERLI to Perform on Tonight's DANCING WITH THE STARS

Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and producer KERLI has signed with leading electronic dance music label Ultra Music for her future music releases. Look for a new single from her to come in early 2014. Says the self-described 'bubble goth' songstress, "I am beyond excited to embark on an electrofantastical odyssey with a label I respect so much. We truly share a vision when it comes to music and art, and have created pieces already that we're aching to unleash to the world."

Meanwhile, KERLI will return to "Dancing With The Stars" to perform during tonight's broadcast (Monday, November 18). She says she will, "...simmer a few of this year's favorite songs in my own sauce." The singer/songwriter made her national TV debut on ABC's massively popular show back in April when she performed her single "Love Me Or Leave Me" from her latest EP UTOPIA.

KERLI's latest release was the UTOPIA EP in late 2012. Written and performed by KERLI, it drew upon inspiration from both pop and dance genres and was recorded with SeventyEight, U.K. producer Switch(M.I.A., Diplo) and Australian DJ/producer tyDI. The first single from the EP, "The Lucky Ones," landed at#1 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Chart, marking KERLI's second #1 dance hit following "Army Of Love" in 2011. The music video for "The Lucky Ones" has surpassed one and a half million views onYouTube: http://youtu.be/FV2Dqz7h4PE. Leading up to "The Lucky Ones," the fashion forward singerwas riding a wave of popularity in the U.S. with her #1 Billboard Dance Club Songs chart smash "Army Of Love" in late 2010 and early 2011. The song proved a fitting bridge for a truly visionary presence on the trendsetting side of pop between KERLI's 2008 debut album Love Is Dead (which spawned the hit"Walking On Air"). The artist, born Kerli Kõiv, also co-wrote Demi Lovato's platinum-selling"Skyscraper," which won an MTV VMA in September of 2012 for 'Best Video With A Message.'
