GLU has announced his solo EP along with the official video for the title track ‘My Demons’ ft. Sarah Barthel of Phantogram. GLU is GRAMMY-nominated musician and multi-instrumentalist Michael Shuman. The frontman of Mini Mansions and member of Queens of the Stone Age is showing another side of himself with his independent debut EP, ‘MY DEMONS’, out February 24th. The title track release features Phantogram’s Sarah Barthel and explores how childhood traumas continue to seep into adult life. The coinciding video turns heads with a steamy, latex-laden Barthel symbolizing the demons that dominate GLU’s thoughts as he raps satirically through a leather ball gag.

‘My Demons’ is an honest and exciting glimpse into the many facets of Shuman as an artist. Stacking lo-fi- hip-hop alongside pop-hued melodies ‘My Demons’ is upbeat and endearing with cynical undertones. With a catchy melody interweaved between jangly keys, punchy beats and fuzzed bass the track is an exciting listening experience. Showcasing Shuman’s knack for creating musical melodies filled with rich rhythms ‘My Demons’ is a thrilling new tune.
