Kelela – New Avatar Vinyl (Indie Exclusive Purple LP)

Expected release date: 10 July 2026 (as this is an import we may receive stock a week after release date.)

“My origin story as a songwriter and artist set the context for the catharsis I experienced while making new avatar. I wrote my very first songs in a punk house. The indie scene I was part of provided me with an outlet for genre-defying experiments that illuminated intersections I was hearing in my head. We didn’t spend tons of time on songs cuz the kids in that scene didn’t care about nailing it. It was (lowkey) about messing up, giving 0 fucks and dismantling the need to be perfect in the first place. It took the pressure off and allowed my first vision of myself to blossom. I used a similar approach with this body of work - moving through with a lot of intention while capturing the freedom and spontaneity that inspired my inception as an artist.

What you’re getting with this album is another facet of my world expressed with a new level of conviction, sometimes in the form of love + devotion and other times in the form of rage.” - Kelela

Limited edition Purple vinyl with printed inner sleeve, in gatefold outer sleeve with 6-panel fold-out poster.
