Kat Graham | Releases New Album ‘Long Hot Summer’

by Sheila Pippin

Actress, singer, dancer, and producer Kat Graham has just released her new album in partnership with GLAAD, Long Hot Summer. Following the disco-tinged album Love Music Funk Magic and the NFT album Toro Gato, Long Hot Summer is a return to her roots in the West Hollywood LGBTQ+ nightclub scene. 

Co-produced with Jean-Yves “Jeeve” Ducornet and featuring 80’s beats and pop synths, Graham’s new dance-pop album is a gift back to the community that embraced her before she gained popularity on the hit series The Vampire Diaries. As Graham says herself, “Especially in partnership with GLAAD, I am beyond excited to celebrate the LGBTQ Community and bring awareness to this incredible organization. We are going to bring the house down!”

Following the album’s release, Kat Graham will be kicking off her world tour to help raise awareness and money for GLAAD, an organization working in digital media, entertainment, and news to support and promote LGBTQ+ equality. Tickets for her Los Angeles show at the OUTLOUD Festival are available here.
