RAZ KLI was born not in the exoteric world, but in the mind of Samuel Quattlebaum- a multi-instrumentalist, writer, producer and esotericist based out of Austin, TX. Quattlebaum has performed, written, recorded and toured with numerous bands, including his group for six years, Beat Bodega. Bands that Samuel has shared the stage with include Portugal. The Man, GROUPLOVE, STRFKR, members of The Mars Volta, Afroman, Leftover Salmon and more.
After producing his first solo album “MALCHUT” under the moniker of Raz Kli, the 2020 release went a little different than planned due to the pandemic- although his single “The Late Night” got multiple spins on Austin radio. Since, he has continued to produce music and perform with other groups such as Satalights, Mike Kiddoo, Lena Luca and other musicians around Austin.
In 2024, his hip hop single, “bubble gum” was released after recording the track at Ocean Wav Studios.
Raz Kli has teased his audience with a sneak preview of the album artwork for his new EP, “AMANTIUM.” Each release is planned to dive into different sounds. Stay tuned.
