Westwood One Mention Charlotte is mentioned (yes, again!) on Westwood One's (web site) THE FAX.
Martin's Transition Held Together By Stromata Charlotte Martin is taking a big step with her latest effort, delving into the electronic side of her music and exposing a little more of her personal nature on the album "Stromata." The vocalist tells us, "My record's about relationships, but not just relationships with people - relationships with my own insecurities, my addictions and vices, failures and disappointments that I've been through and things that I was really proud of. Stromata was the word to tie it all together in a nice little bow," says Martin. The title track is the lead single, and Martin recently shot a video for the song with hubby/director Ken Andrews that coincides with the title. Being as "stromata" is about what holds cells together, the clip finds Martin amidst a background of constantly dividing cells. "It's a little scary, the way it's cut," says the vocalist. "It looks like I'm a bit agitated, but it is a dark song." Charlotte Martin's 'Stromata' is in stores now.
