Known for her vivid songwriting, Los Angeles-based musician Marina Allen has ripened a rare harvest with her third studio album. Taking fragments and stories from Allen’s past, Eight Pointed Star is an arrival home. She'll be bringing these dreamlike musings, each conjuring a world of their own, on tour across Australia this May!
This timeless collection of songs is a clear-eyed modern classic of alternative folk and Americana that holds a curiosity as open to you as you are to them. It’s an album about discovery, searching with the eight points of a compass; about hope, gazing at the emanations within the eight points of a North Star; and about ancestry, being comforted by the eight-pointed stitching patterns used in quilt-making. Full of little, radical acts, coming from a place of truth, Eight Pointed Star favors a type of soul-searching that doesn’t dwell in complications, and is open to answers. Trust is the centrifuge around which themes of love, family and folklore unfurl across the album. Dust is kicked up from the red-scarred earth, and with it, an inexplicable calm settles over these nine songs.
