On 16th February, Marika Hackman releases her striking debut album ‘We Slept At Last’. Today she’s unveiled the latest track to be taken from the Charlie Andrew-produced first work. She’s also announced plans to host her own exhibition, documenting the expansive album art,
‘Animal Fear’, and several examples of Marika expanding the folk parameters that contained her first two EPs. Herself and Andrew seem intent on pushing the boat out, with this latest take sporting reverb-lined guitars and deep, spacious production. Within it all is a lurking darkness – no surprise, given the song’s about resisting the urge to become a werewolf.
18th February sees Marika Hackman performing her album in full at The Cob Gallery, with 70 tickets available. Alongside the performance, the gallery will host photographs that make up the 24-page art booklet for ‘We Slept At Last’.
