release follows Marling’s relocation from London to the hills of Los Angeles where she’s made herself a home away from home. The album was heavily influenced by her time touring the US and, in particular, her enchantment with the West Coast. Lyrically the
album follows a thread of mythology. An eagle and a dove, the devil, and the sea populate her cast of characters; soundscapes ebb and flow like an epic plot, or, for that matter, an epic road trip across the States. It’s a record for the ages. Released at
the age of 23.</span></p>
