"With Semper Femina, Laura Marling uses a broad study of femininity to explore complex relationships between women. The album is filled with beautiful observations on the psychology of friendship."
- Pitchfork
Semper Femina is the sixth studio album by British singer-songwriter, Laura Marling, and was released on 10 March 2017, on More Alarming Records. The album was produced by Blake Mills. The album's title is taken from the song "Nouel".
Described by Alexis Petridis of The Guardian as a "concept album about femininity and female relationships", the title Semper Femina, borrowed from the ancient poet Virgil, is an expression from a longer line of Latin poetry, which roughly translates to “woman is ever a fickle and changeable thing".
This Deluxe Edition includes a full second disc featuring live performances of each of the album's 9 songs.
