MAE MARTIN ANNOUNCES I’M A TV: WELCOME DISTRACTION EDITION

DELUXE ALBUM OUT JUNE 20

PRESS ASSETS HERE

06 JUNE 2025 (TORONTO, ON) - Award-winning comedian, producer, actor, podcast host, and singer-songwriter Mae Martin returns with I’m A TV: Welcome Distraction Edition, the deluxe version of their widely-praised debut album, out June 20.

An expansion of Mae’s raw and resonant debut, the deluxe edition features two brand new tracks alongside acoustic versions of fan favourites, offering listeners a more intimate window into Mae’s creative world. Equal parts vulnerable and cinematic, I’m A TV: Welcome Distraction Edition shares a deeper dive into Mae’s dreamlike world of nostalgia, heartbreak, and radical honesty. Produced by Jason Crouse and Wes Marskell of The Darcys and written entirely by Mae, the album captures the aching beauty of coming-of-age long after you thought you already had. A self-described “chronic oversharer,” Mae approaches songwriting with the same emotional honesty that’s made them a beloved voice in comedy. But here, there’s no pressure to land a punchline, only space to tell the truth. See full tracklisting below.
