The UK singer-songwriter Marika Hackman released her album Big Sigh earlier this year. This fall, she'll head out on her first North American tour in five years. Today, Hackman has shared a new one-off track, a cover of Gaz Coombes' 2015 solo single "The Girl Who Fell To Earth."
Gaz Coombes, the leader of Britpop greats Supergrass, released "The Girl Who Fell To Earth" as a relatively folky, downbeat single from his album Matador. Marika Hackman's version of the song is even more still and restrained that Coombes' original, and she sings some great multi-tracked harmonies with herself. Below, check out Hackman's cover and her upcoming tour dates, as well as Coombes' original.
