FIRST SOLO MATERIAL IN FOUR YEARS “In this handmade heaven, I come alive”
Multifaceted,
award-winning and platinum-selling pop innovator MARINA
(previously Marina and the Diamonds) returns with her eagerly
anticipated new single "Handmade Heaven." MARINA’s first
solo material in four years, "Handmade Heaven" is released via
Atlantic Records. Listen here.
Produced by GRAMMY award-winner Joel Little (Lorde, Khalid,
Sam Smith), "Handmade Heaven" is a lush, surging slice of piano-laced
pop and a welcome reintroduction to MARINA’s distinctive, ethereal
vocals. The powerful, self-penned track finds MARINA imagining
a world as simple as the beautiful creatures and nature that
surround her.

"Handmade
Heaven" is the first taste of MARINA’s forthcoming new album
following a three-year hiatus from the music industry. MARINA
used her break as a period of reflection and to rediscover her
authentic self, as opposed to the artist and persona (‘and the
Diamonds’) she had lived and breathed since signing her record
deal at the age of 22. As part of her journey, she created MarinaBook
as a vehicle to talk about topics outside of music that felt
important to her (social media, material status, mental health,
psychology) and went back to university to study human personality
and attachment theory.
MARINA has spent the past two years writing and recording the
new record across London, Sweden and LA with esteemed names
including Noonie Bao, Sam De Jong, Oscar Görres, Camille Purcell,
Justin Parker and Joe Janiak.
