Spellling (aka Chrystia Cabral) has announced a new album: Spellling & the Mystery School is a collection of new versions of songs from across her discography that she recorded with her touring band. The full-length arrives August 25 via Sacred Bones. Listen to tracks from the LP, “Cherry” and “Under the Sun,” below.
Spellling & the Mystery School has new takes on songs from Spellling’s debut album, Pantheon of Me, as well as 2018’s Mazy Fly and 2021’s The Turning Wheel. “With this album, I wanted to capture the ways that these songs have morphed,” said Cabral in a statement. “They’re like my children all grown up in a different stage of their lives, and I want to celebrate that.”
