album
tea blend
To celebrate the album release, Kélanie teamed up with Brazilian tea makers to develop a custom blend to accompany the album. Preparing tea is a ritual that carries the ancestral wisdom of slowing down, inviting presence and attentive listening—making it the perfect match for the album’s introspective nature.
Kélanie's debut alternative R&B album takes listeners on a journey through the cyclical process of transformation. With 13 tracks diving deep into the dance between light and shadow and the web of our inner and outer worlds. A blend of ethereal vocal layering and subtle repetitions, each track becomes a portal to the invisible realms of sensations as time becomes elastic.
Through the spiraling melodies and rhythms, the album pays homage to the indigenous understanding that everything in life moves in cycles, and in each revolution, we have the opportunity to rediscover and reinvent ourselves.
The album’s title draws from the concept of “spiraling”—a state of being stuck in our heads, perpetuating narratives that block us from our dreams, anchor us to the past, and prevent us from fully living in the present. By moving through the spiral’s depths, we uncover the power to breathe, transform, and arrive fully in the present. The past becomes history, and we emerge grounded, integrated in ourselves and ready for new cycles of growth.
Join Kélanie on this introspective journey where the mind spirals through invisible emotions, resulting in a grounded connection to Earth and the present moment, emerging transformed.
At its core, the spiral is a universal symbol of divinity and existence, representing growth, expansion, and cycles of transformation.In the album, the symbol serves as a guide—each curve reflecting the patterns we repeat in our minds, our relationships, and our personal growth.
The spiral teaches us that transformation is not linear; it is a cyclical process of returning to the same point with new perspectives and deeper understanding.The spiral also mirrors nature’s divine design, seen in galaxies, seashells, and even the human body. Its curves echo the flow of time, where every revolution offers a new opportunity to rediscover and reinvent ourselves.
In this way, Spiral is not just an album; it’s an invitation to embrace the rhythms of life, find beauty in our cycles, and emerge from them more grounded, whole, and connected to both Earth and ourselves.
