Secret Sounds is thrilled to announce that UK folk artist Laura Marling will be back in Australia this June, armed with a new album to add to her already formidable repertoire.

Performing in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide, Laura will be playing songs from her sixth studio album Semper Femina – a personal and very topical observation of how society views sexuality and gender.

Written on the road, following the release of her acclaimed album, Short Movie, in Spring 2015, Semper Femina’s loose lyrical thread strings together Laura’s keen, freshly observed take on womanhood, and what she describes as a particularly ‘masculine time in her life’. It is an expression of her own voyage of self-discovery, both personally and as an artist over the course of her career.
