Melanie Martinez and Atlantic Records announce the release of her hugely anticipated new album and its accompanying full-length film. K-12 arrives on Friday, September 6th; pre-orders are available now HERE.
K-12 marks Martinez’s long anticipated follow-up to her 2015 debut album, Cry Baby. Produced by Michael Keenan with the exception of one song produced by Kinetics & One Love (who previously collaborated with Martinez on such hits as Dollhouse and Carousel), the album serves as a soundtrack companion to an eerily enchanting new musical film, written, directed, and starring Martinez. The exclusive K-12 trailer can be found HERE.
K-12 will have its official premiere in Los Angeles on Tuesday, September 3rd, exclusively at Hollywood’s famed Arclight Cinerama Dome, followed by a premier in New York City at the AMC Empire 25 in Times Square and a one-night-only global event in theatres around the world on Thursday, September 5th. Presented by preeminent global theatrical distributor Abramorama, K-12 will play in 60+ theatres in the U.S. and many more internationally in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Spain, Mexico, Brazil, New Zealand, Ireland, Argentina to name only a few. A complete list of participating theatres and tickets can be found now via www.k-12thefilm.com.
Shot last Fall on location in Budapest, Hungary, K-12 sees Martinez starring as Cry Baby, a strong and sensitive girl who is sent off to a disturbing sleepaway school hidden underneath a grandiose façade. A series of exclusive K-12 teasers are streaming now via Martinez’s official YouTube channel HERE.
“My heart is incredibly full,” says Martinez, “To be able to show people what I’ve been working on these past few years, and to be given the opportunity to create a feature film and have full creative control over every aspect of this project is a huge blessing and I’m beyond grateful.”
Cry Baby made a stunning US SoundScan/Billboard 200 debut at #6 upon its initial August 2015 release while also entering the “Top Alternative Albums” chart at #1. In addition to its own US RIAA platinum certification, 11 of the album’s 13 tracks have now been certified gold or platinum by the RIAA. Indeed, Cry Baby established the multi-talented Martinez, amassing over 2 billion streams worldwide, with her hugely popular YouTube channel now boasting over 7.5 million subscribers and total views fast approaching 1.5 billion. The channel is highlighted by the artist’s phenomenally popular series of Cry Baby visuals, among them such online smashes as Dollhouse (229 million views) Pity Party (145 million), Alphabet Boy (106 million), Carousel (106 million), Cry Baby (96 million), Pacify Her (112 million), Sippy Cup (65 million), Tag You’re It/Milk and Cookies Double Feature (73 million), Mrs. Potato Head (84 million), Soap/Training Wheels (30 million), Mad Hatter (56 million), and Gingerbread Man (25 million).
Cry Baby was indeed an all-encompassing creative endeavor for Martinez. In addition to her musical and visual efforts, Martinez also proved a one-of-a-kind live performer via the massively successful “Cry Baby World Tour,” highlighted by sold out headline shows and unforgettable festival performances around the planet.
