Laura Marling - "Soothing"

By Kyle Meredith
Published November 28, 2016 at 3:11 PM EST

One of our long time favorites, Laura Marling has announced her new album will be called Semper Femina, to be released March 10. About the concept behind the LP, she recently told Fader:

“I started out writing Semper Femina as if a man was writing about a woman. And then I thought it’s not a man, it’s me — I don’t need to pretend it’s a man to justify the intimacy of the way I’m looking and feeling about women. It’s me looking specifically at women and feeling great empathy towards them and by proxy towards myself.”

The first single, "Soothing," also has a video, which we've conveniently posted for you right here.
