Martin Sagadin’s debut solo album weaves together their Slovenian roots with Aotearoa’s rich folk music scene. Martin iz Zgornje Bele refers to the village Martin grew up in, and the album transports the listener to a pastoral but deeply internal space, casting a meditative and emotionally charged spell.
An album announcement show is to take place at Space Academy in Ōtautahi Christchurch, as Martin’s first headlining show with support from Georgia Knight.
The album was produced by Brooke Singer (French for Rabbits) and features Ben Lemi (Trinity Roots, Bret McKenzie) and Xanthe Rook (recitals) on the clarinet, Liz Stokes (The Beths) on flugelhorn and Charlotte Forrester (Womb) on cello, making it a completely unique sounding collection of songs. It was picked up by BaDaBing! Records in New York, while Melted Ice Cream will release it in NZ and Australia.
You may already know Martin Sagadin from their work on some of the most beloved music videos to come out of Aotearoa, including luminaries such as Aldous Harding, Marlon Williams, Nadia Reid, The Bats, Tiny Ruins and many more.
