Marti Pellow Game (Transparent Red)

Marti Pellow’s The Game is a record that reflects both continuity and renewal. As his 13th studio album and his first since 2021, it arrives with the sense of an artist returning to familiar ground while discovering new paths within it. At its core is a pop sensibility, bright, direct, impossible to ignore but woven through are the soulful tones and lyrical warmth that have always been central to Marti’s work.
That sense of instinct, of music made with both head and heart, is perhaps why Marti has described The Game as one of his favourites. It feels open, free, and confident, carrying the sound of an artist still thriving in his element.
