Primadonna is the first single to be taken from Marina and The Diamonds brand new album ‘Electra Heart’ released on 679/Atlantic on 30th April 2012.

New single ‘Primadonna’ is a fast paced, fun disco pop anthem. Produced by Dr Luke, it features strong, punchy electro beats alongside Marina’s distinguished vocal of entertaining tongue-in-cheek lyrics. Premiered at her live shows last week, the single received a great reaction from fans. She also gave away album track ‘Homewrecker’ at her recent shows as a present, which features her speaking in eloquent British vocals before launching ferociously into a huge, catchy chorus.

‘Electra Heart’ is a huge leap forward for Marina and promises to be one of the most exciting pop releases of 2012, underlining that she is amongst the most talented young British artists around. A ground-to-air missile of ambitious and confident songs, the record was written and recorded in London and LA over the last 18 months whilst on tour. Featuring 12 brand new self-written tracks, Marina handpicked a close group of collaborators to write and produce with including Dr Luke (Katy Perry), Rick Nowels (Madonna), Liam Howe (Sneaker Pimps) and Greg Kurstin (Lily Allen).
