If the Chateau Marmont could sing. This would be it. Loren Kramar'svoice vibrates with the shameless hum of a room after a celebrity exits.Ecstatic aspiration. Doubt. Proximity. Desire. The album Glovemaker isabout the skins we craft to be seen by the world, and Loren reminds usthat we are all in drag. All exposed. No matter what gloves we slip on.I'm a slut for all my dreams, Loren Kramar sings with Patti Smithbrashness, I'm a whore for them, I've got more of them. Loren's lyricsmove like tinsel, shimmering bravely, then just as quickly, curling, fragileunder the spotlight. Loren has always been obsessed with fame. Notwith famous people, but with the electricity that perverts attention - thecrushing desire to be truly seen. And all of Loren, and this obsession, isin this album. He grew up in the Valley, forced to hide his Barbies fromhis father, so the closet was a gorgeous Spanish ranch house on agilded cul-de-sac crawling with celebrities. Naturally this gay boy wantedto be a child star so his mother secretly shuttled him to tap and jazzand figure skating lessons. I've got hands and feet to put in theconcrete, Loren croons, in "Hollywood Blvd," a song which clangs withbrawny bravado. But "Gay Angels" reminds us that Loren's infatuationwith stardom is inextricably linked with his queerness and his owndesire to live outside of fear. To be famous is to be out. To be known.To be himself."Glovemaker has become a kind of code for art making itself.
