Camilo EG has always thrived at the crossroads of intimacy and grandeur, and with his new EP Accidental Baroque, he delivers a concise but powerful statement that highlights his versatility as a songwriter, singer, and performer. At just four tracks and 17 minutes, it’s a tight listen, but one that lingers well beyond its runtime, creating an experience that feels both personal and cinematic, woven with rock warmth and alternative edge.

The EP opens with a bold reimagining of Queen’s “Teo Torriatte (Let Us Cling Together),” and it’s no exaggeration to say it’s one of the most striking renditions of the classic we’ve ever heard. Where Queen’s original soared with a kind of stately optimism, Camilo leans into a darker, more rock-focused interpretation, using textured guitars and shadowed atmospheres to uncover new emotional depth. It’s not simply a cover, it’s a transformation, reframed through his artistic lens. During our interview with Camilo, he spoke about the challenge of approaching such an iconic piece with reverence while still making it his own. That balance comes through brilliantly, a true feat that sets the tone for the rest of the record.
