A label like “Bipolar folk” might leave you scratching your head, but for Kera and the Lesbians, the description fits. Their music is characterized by mood swings: The LA-based duo manages to span a multitude of genres, with singer Kera serving up garage-soul vocals against waves of dark, southern brass, and desert-folk guitar riffs. With an album and 2 EPS under their belt, the band has yet to shy away from experimenting with their sound. Their latest single “I’m Late” (streaming below) demonstrates the band’s chameleon capabilities with a smooth serenade.-Tafari Lemma
