12 APRIL 2025— KARO GLAZER, The Lady Dynamite, called “a true singing asset and the best Poland has to offer” is an artist with 4-octave expressive voice and endless musical imagination, whose talent was appreciated by Tom Waits and members of Coldplay during International Songwriting Competition, shares the first independent, hotly anticipated solo album “#LadyDynamite”.
"#LadyDynamite" – the latest album by KARO GLAZER is a fully original work, written, composed, arranged, and produced by the artist herself. "#LadyDynamite" is both a symphony of untamed sounds—wild, daring, and rich in extraordinary arrangements—as well as a celebration of classical beauty through the synergy of genres. It is a return to roots, yet at the same time, a fresh artistic concept, where one can hear the polyphony of diverse influences. The album clearly reflects both European and American musical traditions, illustrating how these two worlds continuously inspire each other in KARO GLAZER's work. One cannot exist without the other. They are two opposing forces constantly clashing, making it difficult to classify this album—or KARO's entire body of work—into a single category. Each track stands out on its own, yet together, they form a cohesive story. The album’s bold grooves and sophisticated melodies capture deep emotions and the artist's raw expression, making it clear that "#LadyDynamite" is not just another record, but a daring, mature, and artistically uncompromising creation. It is surprising, versatile, and presents an entirely new artistic vision, proving that KARO GLAZER is ready for a true revolution.
This album is powerful! On one hand, it’s tough, rough, and unsettling; on the other, it’s sensual, passionate, and full of desire—an orgy of sounds flowing uncontrollably through the listener's body. Musically, the artist masterfully keeps her audience on edge: at times, the sound is dark, mysterious, and grand, then suddenly lyrical, light, and feminine. There is tension and release. Undoubtedly, this marks a new chapter in KARO GLAZER's artistic journey, not only as a vocalist but above all as a composer. The orchestration of each instrumental section could easily serve as an exceptional soundtrack for a film. The album features rich layers of keyboard instruments, powerful bass lines, numerous guitars, a brass section, three drummers, and countless vocal layers. "#LadyDynamite" is a true Odyssey on the borders of genres, infused with progressive elements of alternative music, soul, jazz, and psychedelia.
As a vocalist, KARO showcases the full spectrum of her abilities, proving that the human voice is a limitless instrument, capable of expressing far more than we can imagine. When it needs to be wild, it is untamed. When it needs to be warm, it is sensual. Classical vocalizations blend with free jazz improvisations and beautiful soul-infused toplines. Drawing from her vast experience, KARO demonstrates that mastering diverse vocal techniques grants her the artistic freedom to go wherever she pleases, unrestricted by genre or style.
"For me, #LadyDynamite is an album about freedom and self-love. It carries a deep sense of defiance against the things that surround and destroy us. It was born from my pain, anger, and helplessness. There is rage here, a loud 'NO,' but also love and hope—a flood of extreme emotions that consumed me. #LadyDynamite was created in a difficult and dark moment of my life, shortly after awakening from a years-long lethargy in which I had unknowingly been trapped in psychological abuse. Working on these songs helped me understand who I am and reclaim my power. I felt that I could do anything! That I am the master of my own life and that I have the right to reach for every dream I have! Without #LadyDynamite, the real me wouldn’t exist today. These songs carry strength, and I want to share that strength with you." – Karo Glazer
