XELLE Announces New Album + Video Coming Soon

XELLE has been hibernating recently. I had been wondering why one of the best girl groups of recent years had been so quiet. Turns out they had to be because their resident drag queen had taken off to be on the first All Stars season of Drag Race. Luckily she's back now and the chaos can resume -- just in time for a couple of awesome announcements.

It looks like XELLE is finally ready to release their album -- err -- EP. No word yet on the exact number of tracks (I know it has at least four on it). In order to get the best info I went straight to the source. I emailed the girls themselves to ask them exactly what the release is all about!

"Right now we're planning on releasing it in October 2012. The EP has all the singles we've released so far (Party Girl, Invincible), plus an epic ballad about life in NYC and lots more XELLE dance floor goodness. There's a super fun song on the EP that we all wrote together with our producer, Zach Adam, and another one that he co-wrote with Lisa Greene, who wrote "Breathe On Me" for Britney Spears!"

That's not all, either. The girls have been busy since Mimi got back to NYC. It's been a long time coming that their video for "Hologram" be released. They have given hints like it uses an untapped medium, and it is something not seen before, but I finally got them cornered in the email long enough to give me a little more info!

"We're putting the finishing touches on the Hologram video at the moment and the preview of it is coming really soon, then the whole video will be out in October. You won't believe the celebrity cameos and all the crazy plot twists! This is a music video unlike any other..."

The EP drops October 23. No date has been announced for the video, but it will probably come out around the same time. Looks like all the queens are syncing up their releases with All Stars. October is going to be one hell of a month.
