Infrared is a 2016 extended play by American singer Dawn Richard.
Kevin Lozano of Pitchfork Media rated this EP a 7.7 out of 10, concluding, "in the 14 minutes of Dawn’s brief blue period, she and Kingdom did what few can do—build a diorama for love’s life cycle, encompassing everything from death defying adoration and righteous anger to, best of all, forgiveness". In Resident Advisor, Andrew Ryce wrote that this album is "naked both musically and lyrically" showing the strength of Richard as a musician who does not need "to embellish her songwriting with production wizardry and experimental beats". TinyMixTapess Birkut gave this work a 3.5 out of 5 for maintaining a "feeling of multifaceted and expressive response throughout".
