Los Angeles-based indie songstress Kina Grannis is proud to announce the upcoming release of her sophomore album ''Elements.'' Produced and recorded by Matt Hales (aka Aqualung), the new album will arrive May 6th, 2014 via Kina Grannis Music/One Haven. ''Elements'' follows Kina's breakout 2011 debut ''Stairwells'' and showcases a decidedly more mature sound. Aided by Hales, whose recent credits include with Paloma Faith, Alex Clare, Lianne La Havas, Kina's newest songs are filled with layered vocals and harmonies and lush, intricate soundscapes, while documenting a period of growth and change in her personal life, complete with an honesty and a vulnerability that she's excited to share with her fans. Kina's story would not be complete without mentioning how she got to where she is today. In 2007, Kina wrote ''Message From Your Heart,'' filmed a video and uploaded it to YouTube. A few months later, her song and video earned her a major label recording contract and aired during the Super Bowl in front of its 97 million viewers. Kina soon forfeited the record deal, choosing instead to self-release her album and keep creative control. Her debut album ''Stairwells'' debuted on Billboard's Top 200 chart (and #2 on its New Artist chart) due in large part to her devoted online following. To date, Kina has amassed nearly 125 million video views and has accrued more than 835,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel thanks to unforgettable videos for her original music, including ''Valentine'' and ''In Your Arms.'' Both videos were added across MTV and VH1 networks and the latter earned Kina visits to The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Jimmy Kimmel Live and was named one of the Top 10 videos of the year by Time Magazine. Kina has headlined tours around the world, selling out shows from New York to Los Angeles, London to Berlin and Sydney to Tokyo.
