Avalon Emerson is bringing back the Charm. Last year, the DJ and producer shared a new song \u201cEden,\u201d under the moniker, and now she\u2019s following it up with a whole new album. Emerson produced Written Into Changes<\/em> alongside Bullion, who worked on the original & the Charm<\/em> LP in 2023, and Rostam Batmanglij. It\u2019s out March 20 on Dead Oceans. Watch a Ben Turok-directed video for the new single \u201cJupiter and Mars\u201d below.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the first album, the songs were pretty soft and kind of bedroomy,\u201d Emerson said in a press statement. “And then playing them on a big kind of festival stage was a learning experience. Coming back into the studio for a second round, it was important to think about the dynamics and energy of what we were making and how they might be performed in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2025, Emerson launched the singles series Perpetual Emotion Machine,<\/em> which included her rework of Moby\u2019s \u201cNext Is the E.\u201d Her upcoming tour schedule includes headlining shows across Europe and California, dates supporting Snail Mail and Fcukers, and a slot at C2C Festival New York in May. Scroll down to check out all of Emerson\u201ds upcoming performances.<\/p>\n
