We’re always on the lookout for new queer music artists…and, we love Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and artist Chris Kittrell’s new project HEATHER STRANGE. Kittrell has released the debut music video as “Heather”…it’s the track, “Ruthless” and it feels very 80s New Romantic/Glam to us!

Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and artist Chris Kittrell has released the debut music video for his new project, Heather Strange. The track, “Ruthless,” is available now and is produced by Dave Sitek (TVOTR, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Jay-Z & Beyoncé) and Christopher Hines.

Of the track, Chris says: “I wrote ‘Ruthless’ at a low point in my life. I had insecurities and doubts about where I was going, and the world around me. It was rough, but I kept holding on and pushing myself forward, creating music and art. Perseverance is so important. If you hold on and put energy into the things you love, life will balance out.”

Of his new project, Chris says: “Heather Strange is my stage name, inspired by the street where I first started writing the music in Cold Water Canyon, Los Angeles. I like the name because it’s something bigger than me, something I can create and become a character in front of my audience.”

Kittrell’s artistic repertoire includes film, painting, musical composition, autoharp, guitar and motion collage. His voice has been described as “hypnotic” by Vogue, “slinky, and soulful” by Vice.
