Los Angeles, CA: With accolades mounting and the echoes of her recent successes still resonating, Grammy-winning sensation Kali Uchis is gearing up to release "Orquídeas", her fourth studio album, on January 12, 2024. Loyal fans and new listeners alike can pre-save and pre-order to ensure they're among the first to experience Uchis’ latest enchanting Spanish-language journey.

Kali draws inspiration from the orchid, Colombia's national treasure that outnumbers any other country in species variety. "I've always been drawn to its timeless, mystic, and sensual allure. Through 'Orquídeas', I aim to reshape the narrative surrounding Latinas in music," Uchis expressed. August witnessed the artist teasing her evolving Spanish-language era with the hit "Muñekita," a powerful collaboration with Dominican dembow artist El Alfa and JT from City Girls.

Earlier this year, Uchis captured the music scene's attention with her lauded "Red Moon In Venus". Debuted under Geffen Records, this work swiftly entered many 2023 top charts, including from Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, and Billboard. Not only did the album mark her first Top 10 entry on the Billboard 200 at #4, but tracks like the Gold-certified “Moonlight” and collaborations with artists like Summer Walker and Don Toliver accentuated its acclaim. Listen to the album’s captivating tracks here.

Uchis' celebration of her music extended beyond studios and charts. The artist recently concluded the two-leg "Red Moon In Venus Tour", performing at monumental venues like L.A’s Hollywood Bowl and New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Further magnifying her aura was her mesmerizing act at Coachella, where she surprised fans by bringing on stage artists such as Tyler, The Creator.

Moreover, with reviews pouring in from The New York Times, Variety, and more, "Red Moon In Venus" is undeniably among the year’s standout albums. Its vibrant tracks encapsulate love's spectrum, blending R&B seamlessly with soul and funk.

Besides her Grammy, Kali Uchis has been celebrated with numerous accolades, including the Billboard Latin Music Award and the American Music Award. Her 2021 megahit “telepatía” alone boasts over 2 billion streams, reigning as Billboard Hot 100’s top-performing Spanish song by a solo artist this decade with its impressive 23-week streak.

From her early days juggling life between Virginia and Colombia to her breakthrough with "Por Vida" in 2015, Kali Uchis has proven herself as an unstoppable force in the music realm. Her collaborations span across iconic names like SZA, Gorillaz, and Major Lazer. As she continues her musical sojourn, "Orquídeas" promises yet another chapter of excellence from this dynamic artist.
