With her second album acting as something of a purposeful second coming, Marika Hackman is in full swing. Immediately kicking in with her new brand of attitude-filled, but not obnoxious, rock, she commands a packed out tent here to experience ‘I’m Not Your Man’ in all its glory.
Opening with ‘Good Intentions’, Marika plays with the focus of someone with something to say. Determined through each moment, everything is in its right place, even the older material finds its place amongst the new.
‘My Lover Cindy’ gives the set its vulnerability, whilst keeping true to its recorded twin, and is received with unprecedented welcoming and yearning. Marika’s new voice is certainly her best move forward.
