Today, chlothegod — the North Carolina born, LA based singer-songwriter whose alternative rock take on richly soulful R&B defies genres — releases the deluxe edition of her recent sophomore EP I Feel Different Every Day via EQT. Featuring four new tracks that are “bubbly, precocious, and laden with color, it spins chlothegod’s influences in a fresh direction” (Clash). Listen to and purchase I Feel Different Every Day (Deluxe) here.

After chlo’s first ever US headline tour this month, she’ll be supporting Orion Sun on tour this May; see all of the live dates below. Last month, chlothegod played at Pigeons & Planes’ Medium Sized Backyard, watch the transfixing full performance here.

“For IFDED deluxe, I wanted to play with saying plainly that the rollercoaster of emotion is coming to an end and ultimately facing the hurt head on,” says chlo. “It allowed me to leave space in both the music and in myself, acknowledging the way my heart has been broken and the breaking I’ve also done. I’m no stranger to admitting my screws come loose, and while falling into old patterns is not the permanent solution, a track like ‘I Think I’ gives me some well deserved pay back.”

Of the EP, KEXP said “the vivacious, genre-defying chlothegod blends guitar-driven pop, R&B, hip-hop, and punk influences for a rich, intoxicating soundscape that brings surprise and delight at every corner,” while BET noted it’s “driven by pure emotion, the project showcases the best of chlo’s quirkiness and relatability.”

Within I Feel Different Every Day, chlo creates tracks with beguiling grooves and rollercoaster vocal ranges on “I Swear,” soft guitar strums that turn into a screaming catharsis from childhood trauma as on the title track, a winking sense of humor that proves she can laugh at herself along the way on “My GF H8s Me,” and passionately dynamic percussive elements; queue the switch halfway through “I Know What Everyone Says About Me.”

As a follow up to her acclaimed 2023 debut EP Nearly Straight, chlothegod stays sensitive in her storytelling, but the air is much different on I Feel Different Every Day — her rage, messiness, and exhaustion is felt deeply and heard loudly. The project is a document of a woman in her 20s, and chlo comes with a startling candor as she continues to figure out who she is and who she has yet to become. She’s as self aware as ever, and throughout the project, we’re invited in to uncover and examine her flaws (and likely our own at the same time).
