Kelela Announces Third Album New Avatar

""New Avatar pays homage to the singer-songwriter's early days writing music in the D.C. indie scene, before she made a pivot to electronic-tinged R&B.""
""The full-length blends shoegaze, grunge, R&B, and electronic music, and features collaborations with PinkPantheress, A. K. Paul, and Fousheé.""
