'Every Season', Martell's forthcoming and highly anticipated album, is set to release on September 30, 2022. Working with acclaimed songwriter/co-writer and now Producer Gabrielle Papillon, Martell’s upcoming work explores new territory with cinematic ambient folk pop anthems. An evolution in sound that manages to remain true to her earthy roots; exploring change, exposing raw truths, revealing strength and renewed hope.
With an ECMA and two Music NS nominations already under her belt, Martell is making a name for herself in the East Coast music scene.

In celebration of the recent 2023 ECMA Nomination for 'Album of the Year' and 'Folk Recording of the Year', Kristen is excited to be offering a limited edition lathe cut vinyl of 'Every Season'.
Manufactured here in Nova Scotia by Acre Alley, the vinyl is estimated to be ready to ship by April 2023.
From Acre Alley's website:
What is Lathe Cut Vinyl?
Lathe cut vinyl is cut directly on to PVC record blanks. Unlike pressed vinyl, which requires lacquers and stampers to be made (and minimums of 100+) each lathe cut vinyl records is cut in real time with our diamond stereo cutting lathe. Careful attention is given to each cut and we strive to make the best sounding record possible!

lyrics
When you’ve arrived where the tide brings a thousand tears
And when you’ve replaced inner faith with a rumbling fear
Take the time to collide, there's no reason to disappear.
Dive into the deep where the water is cool and clear.
Coasting through the standstill
Hoping that the time will
Filter all the feelings
Colour all the edges smooth
Every season
Brings another view
Every shadow
Brings another truth
When you have tried to deny every aching need
Dig down to the deep slow release that misery
Coasting through the standstill
Hoping that the time will
Filter all the feelings
Colour all the edges smooth
Every season
Brings another view
Every shadow
Brings another truth
