A Melanie Martinez x 'K-12' appreciation post.

Melanie Martinez recently returned with a brand new studio album ‘K-12’ - which she debuted through the release of an accompanying full-length film.

With no releases of songs prior to the album/film release, Martinez brought all 13 songs to life with the film set in the fictional K-12 Sleepaway School, with songs that touch on sexism, fake friends, insecurities, and more.

Read up on Melanie and the new album below…

#1. Martinez spoke with Build Series about filming ‘K-12’ (which was a 31-day filming process) and how it helped her gain confidence - watch the interview segments below:

#2. Alongside the album release, Martinez has a number of merchandise and vinyl packages - which include cute things like rainbow socks, a pastel t-shirt in your choice of colour, and more! Click here to check out the options.

#3. The album includes highlights like ‘Lunchbox Friends’ and ‘Strawberry Shortcake’, which are two of our favourites - listen to them both:

#4. The accompanying film was written and directed entirely by Martinez herself - much like the music videos from her previous album ‘Cry Baby’, which she also wrote and directed.

#5. Martinez has announced that her upcoming tour dates will benefit The Trevor Project - with $1 from every ticket sale being donated to the charity which works to provide crisis intervention and suicide prevention services for LGBTQ youth.
