Chloe Trujillo Releases Video for “Lies” off New EP ‘Rebirth’

With her sights set on a March 5th release for her independent new solo EP Rebirth, singer and songwriter Chloe Trujillo has unveiled the final video for “Lies” from the collection.

Chloe says the haunting and sonically heavy Middle Eastern-tinged track:

“…is all about letting go of those lies we tell ourselves, freeing the ego, limiting beliefs, control, old identities and opening up to receive a higher truth. True spiritual insight comes from piercing beyond illusions, our own and the world’s or society’s and shedding old layers to reveal our truth.”

Chloe teamed up with producer Alejandro Ordonez and Raubtier Productions (she previously worked with the team for her “Path” video) for the clip’s direction. To fully capture the authenticity of the magical ritualistic moment around the fire, which further enhances the song’s message, the video highlights two native dancers, Ba’ac Garcia and M.Baaker.

“Lies” follows the album’s first single, the soulfully expressive metal song “As the Sky is Falling Down.” The track’s ominous guitar underscores the Paris-born and Los Angeles-based artist’s moving and haunting delivery. The delicate hum gives way to a trudging groove, and Chloe proclaims, “As the sky is falling down, I stand tall, wreckage all around, but I won’t fall.” Her spoken word transfixes over the turbulent bridge.

Rebirth evokes the sound of change out loud. You can hear the past being shed, the present being seized, and the future being manifested through her spirited conjurations of soulfully expressive metal. Chloe carefully crafted what would become Rebirth throughout 2024 and 2025. Her songwriting process is ongoing and ever-evolving.

When choosing the songs for the new EP, she says:

“I have a stash of hundreds of songs waiting to be properly recorded, so for this EP, I selected four of those to finish. I already have another six or seven in mind for my next release.”

Following writing, she teamed up with producer Jake Carmona to bring it to life in the studio.
