Talented English Singer and multi-instrumentalist Marika Hackman released a new single last month, “No Caffeine”, which is a taster for her fourth album ‘Big Sigh’ which is due out on 12th January 2024 on Chrysalis Records. The single bags up anger, hope, confusion, and love in an intricate musical path in which Hackman deals with anxiety and panic attacks. The opening verse sets the scene perfectly and will be very close to home for anyone who has experienced anxiety or panic attacks. It certainly brought the experience back to me. The new album will be a contender for the album of the year 2024 if the rest of the tracks are as good as “No Caffeine”. The video has a real edge to it and enhances what is already a wonderful song. She also released another new song a couple of weeks ago, “Hanging”, an incredibly dark, haunting, and beautiful ballad that seems to be about loss and suffocating relationships. It has shades of Kate Bush as it heads towards its climax.
