Laura Marling and Mike Lindsay team up on new album 'LUMP'

After wowing us last year with the release of her 'Semper Femina' album, Laura Marling has now returned alongside Tuung's Mike Lindsay to release a new collaborative album.

Working under the name LUMP, the pair are planning to release their self-title debut album on the 1st June via Dead Oceans Records, and have previewed the record with the video for lead single 'Curse Of The Contemporary'.

Speaking about the new video, director Esteban Diacono said, "For me it was very important that this video was respectful of the spirit of Laura and Mike's collaboration. I wanted to create a video that was joyful and interesting while at the same time retaining an innocent and tender overall vibe. I also wanted to touch on some of the topics that were important to Laura's lyrics, but under a different look. Visually, I took inspiration from the idea of California as a Dream Factory, from the idea of big movie sets that could transform themselves, give shape and colour to dreams and spark the imagination. The video is fully animated, and LUMP was brought to life using motion capture technology."

Check out the video for 'Curse Of The Contemporary' in the player and see the album's full tracklisting below.

1. Late To The Flight
