While Unravel Me shifts through a varied palate of moods and tones, as a whole it paints a cohesive portrait of a songwriter who has not only become a master of her craft but is also comfortable wearing that mantle. The record glides between luxurious, sweeping ballads cascading with multilayered vocal harmonies, folk-inflected uplifting pop, and bluesy laments to lost love; all tied together with a lilting voice warm as summer sunshine.

Unravel Me - Kristin Chambers

Everything Woman

Springtime Sugarcane,
dried up when summer came,
You started to pray in a whole new way.

Sweet Honey haze,
the rains washed away.
You started to pray for my heart to change

And You Surprise Me.
But I like things the same.

Springtime Sugarcane.
The Angels looked away.
Once Sweet on my tongue,
now bitter in the drain.

What made you think
it could ever be okay again.
Drinking the same rain,
scrubbing  the same stain.

And You Surprise Me.
But I like things the same.

But holding on to you,
Holding on to you,
Holding on to you
will never do.

Kristin Chambers/Roger Lloyd 2018

Springtime Sugarcane

Two steps forward, one step back
I am the yardstick keeping track.
Anchor in my stomach,
This time on my face.
All from things I can't erase.

And nothing from nothing is nothing at all,
Cover your head, the sky might fall.

Unravel me, unravel me today.
Unshackle me from things just filling space.
Unravel me, unravel me today.
I wanna break free, 
I wanna end this chase.

Out on the ocean I see some calm.
What's there in motion makes me small.
It might take a lifetime,
but there I will fall,
And see control was never mine at all.

And nothing from nothing is nothing at all,
Cover your head, the sky might fall.

Unravel me, unravel me today.
Unshackle me from things just filling space.
Unravel me, unravel me today.
I wanna break free, 
I wanna end this chase.

Unravel Me

Sorry In A Song
Don't write you're sorry in a song,
for me to listen now your gone.
You're sorry for everything you've done.
You didn't mean to do me wrong,
cause I'll be miles down the road

Don't leave a message on my phone
coward confessions of your soul.
Regretting you took her in your arms,
Made another heart your home,
cause I won't hear it anymore

The night you broke my heart,
Was the night that I moved on.
And every day we're apart,
Baby, I'm better on my own.

Don't make a date to keep the peace,
for you to set your conscience free.
There's nothing you could make me see, 
or one word I'd believe
that you ever cared for me.

Kristin Chambers

Sorry In A Song

Twilight, more Night to remind me.
Such quiet, isolating focus.
Every inch of every last room,
Both empty and filled with memories of you.

And, Oh my God.
That yellow Moon,
Could it lead me back to you?

I prayed for one day to forget you.
Just one day, floating numb elated.
But you are there in all that I do.
So we are never separated.

And, Oh my God.
That Yellow Moon,
Could it lead me back to you?

Yellow Moon

Fear or Love 

Laid his gun down
And the metal hit the ground and he swore to you,
He swore that he was through.
Then it cast a spark,
You could see it in the dark.
Then it was something new, 
Then the spark it grew into something brighter.

Fear or Love.
You’ve got a choice between the devil and the dove.
Fear or Love.
You build your house around the thoughts your thinking of.
Fear or Love.

Ultimatum down
She Thought they’d come around
Like they swore they’d do. They swore they’d follow through.
‘Cause they know what sells. They can ring it like a bell
Then it’s nothing new. Just garbage down the shoot.
It’s one big damn fantastic lie.

Fear or Love.
We’ve got a choice between the devil and the dove.
Fear or Love.
We build our house around the thoughts your thinking of.
Fear or Love. 


It’s always been this way. 
Subtract a million days. 
It’s always been this way.

Fear or Love.
We’ve got a choice between the devil and the dove.
Fear or Love.
We build our house around the thoughts your thinking of.
Fear or Love.

Fear Or Love

A Matter of Time

It was just a matter of time,
once you put your hand in mine,
that we would fall into our love's design.

A sea of hearts and longing eyes,
and somehow you have chosen mine,
and now our eyes reflect the same desire.

And Here I'll stay,
heart open for display.
I'm your anchor, blanket, melody always.

And it was just a matter of time,
once you gave your heart mine,
that we would fall into this love's design.

Kristin Chambers moves through American songbook with the easy grace that comes from a lifetime steeped in song. On her new record Unravel Me, the Seattle-based artist glides between luxurious, sweeping ballads cascading with multilayered vocal harmonies, folk-inflected uplifting pop, and bluesy laments to lost love; all tied together with a lilting voice warm as summer sunshine. While each composition stands on its own, together they paint a portrait of a creative spirit striding confidently into the spotlight.       

Chambers honestly cannot remember a time in her life when she wasn’t singing and performing; whether for imaginary friends in her childhood bedroom or sold out crowds at venues across the pacific northwest. “Since I can remember there has always been a song to sing and a story to tell” says Chambers. “From that same time, I always had a journal, and the desire to record my experiences.”

This singing and writing followed Chambers from school and college to the New York City theater scene. Through talent, persistence, and plain ol’ grit Chambers started to make headway, landing both an agent and call-backs for some Broadway production. Then September 11th happened and everything changed. “There was something about the desperation and honesty of that time that got to the root of whether I desired to go on in theater” Chambers tells. “The answer was inevitable no.” She packed her bags and headed home to Seattle.

Recovering, reflecting, and ruminating on art and life, Chambers came to realize that she’d basically been writing original music her whole life, but had never matched the melodies in her head to the musings captured in countless journals. “I wrote my first song before I even knew what the chords were” she laughs, “I had to ask someone!” These days Chambers is coming up one one-hundred-twenty originals, and she writes a song a week.

Chambers career as a recording artist began with the 2010 release of her eponymous debut LP, followed by 2012’s Endless Road EP. Chambers released the ambitious, mature Everything Woman (2014) was followed by her award-winning 2015 release Snow Globe, a mix of five originals and five holiday classics.


While Chambers’ music shifts through a varied palate of moods and tones, as a whole it paints a cohesive portrait of a songwriter who has not only become a master of her craft but is also comfortable wearing that mantle. “I always want people to feel hope when they listen to my music” says Chambers. “I try to write from my authentic self, and I hope that comes through.”  Chambers songs glow with palpable realness, and satisfy in the way only truly honest art can.
