SPELLLING announces new album, Portrait of My Heart
As the list of new releases for 2025 grows, SPELLLING throws her hat in the ring as well, with the announcement that she’ll be releasing Portrait of My Heart via Sacred Bones on March 28. Today she’s released the title track. Hear it below.
“When the lyrics for the title track came together, it really started to morph everything in this more energetic direction, instead of this more whimsical landscape that I’ve worked with before. It started to become more driven, higher energy, more focused,” SPELLLING’s Chrystia Cabral said in a statement. “And I have a big affection for it because of that. I love that it feels like it withstood transformation, which is something I always want to aspire to with things that I make. I want them to have this sense of timelessness. It could exist like this, or like that, or like this, but this is the one for right now.”
SPELLLING’s last album of new material was 2021’s The Turning Wheel, followed by 2023’s set of re-recorded songs, SPELLLING & The Mystery School.
