MARATHON (CLEAR VINYL)

'Marathon' is Goodnight Louisa's sophomore album to well-acclaimed debut LP 'Human Danger'. The album release will follow in succession to six singles, the focus tracks named after celebrities Grace Jones, Jennifer Aniston and Drew Barrymore. "Marathons take everything you've got, and this record took everything I had. I started making it when I was 22, and finished it when I was 25. Throughout the years of recording the record spanning from late 2021 to 2024, I was not a very confident individual. I struggled a lot with coming to terms with my sexuality, illness, shame, and trusting myself. Fittingly, I started running throughout making the record too, running long distances and half marathons, but whilst I enjoyed it at times, it quickly became another impossible standard for me to try and obtain. 'Marathon' feels like a debut album to me, as I had no clue who I was before I started it. I feel that this record will always be important to me as a marker of strength and persistence. I hope that resonates with listeners throughout."
