'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
Written by Kristen Martell and Gabrielle Papillon
Take this lone parade of one emotion
March it to the grave with battered hearts in tow
Bleeding kingdoms fall on restless shadows
Darkness will defend the ones in need
Here’s a photograph of secrets for the remedy you seek
OOOh
A solid steady hum fills the silence
Guiding like a drum the ones in need
Cast a stone upon old waters for the reverie you seek
OOOh
Here’s a photograph of secrets for the remedy you seek
OOOh’s
(Take this lone parade of one emotion
March it to the grave with hearts in tow) repeat
