Apple Martin Steps Into Music With Her Debut Single
Looks like Apple Martin isn’t just following in mom Gwyneth Paltrow‘s footsteps—she’s also taking cues from dad Chris Martin! The young model has just revealed her first single, “Satellites,” released with Jade Street (the duo composed of Eli Meyuhas and Zachary Zwelling). The dreamy rock song marks Jade Street’s third single, preceding their upcoming fourth song “June”—which also launched today. Martin notably joined the pair onstage earlier this month to perform the song at Nashville’s Cannery Hall, simultaneously making her performing debut as well. The future seems bright for a potential musical career for Martin, whose father famously fronts Coldplay—and Paltrow, who’s proven her own vocal chops through projects including a viral episode of Glee and the 2009 film Country Strong.
