Martina Stokes’ most recent release is a boppy single titled “XOXO.” Stokes claims that the record is most aligned with her sound and what she is trying to achieve with pop music. Growing up playing classical piano and being a part of an orchestra, Martina often talks about the beauty of the brass instruments and how they can contribute to a song. “XOXO” contains these just that, with the saxophone singing from the get-go. With elements of soul, pop, and dynamic vocalist style, “XOXO” is a marathon start to finish that Stokes struts through.
