One of the greatest things for me about Marianne's new YouTube channel is to have all the EPKs - short for electronic press kit - in one place. They are mini-documentaries about the making of the album and recording process if you will and very interesting.
So far we have the ones for "Kissin Time" - above -, "Before The Poison" and "Horses And High Heels". There's one for "Easy Come, Easy Go", so I'm hoping that will be added soon.

A Message From Marianne. Every Friday Marianne is sharing a little treat with her fans. This week it is an audio message that she has recorded for us all.
I’m liking these Faithfull Fridays already! The lovely black and white photo was taken by Eric Guillemain in June 2014.

… and so the day begins Mx
How Marianne Faithfull starts her day. Fabulous sunnies, red lipstick and a fancy cane!
Marianne Faithfull yesterday (July 15th) at AnOther Magazine’s first Spotlight Salon in London. Marianne joined Anna Calvi and Samantha Morton in a discussion about their working practices, collaboration with others and lack of women in music and film production.
Head over to AnOther for more photos, quotes and some really exciting news (hint: a music video). Photo by Rosaline Shahnavaz.

"Anything which makes life more bizarre makes life a bit more bearable," Marianne says of her own inclination to dress in men’s clothes.“Dresses are too fussy, too feminine for me.” Did she reject that sort of femininity?“I don’t think about it at all. (…) You see, I don’t care about people’s reaction to what I wear and I’ve generally had a good reaction anyway.”

Seventeen-year-old Marianne Faithfull posing in one of her first photoshoots in the summer of 1964. It was almost exactly 50 years ago that Marianne released the single that would launch her career - "As Tears Go By".
In the summer of 2014 she is still going strong, celebrating her half-century stage anniversary and looking forward to the release of her new album "Give My Love To London".
Marianne’s new single “Sparrows Will Sing” which was written by Roger Waters is now available on Spotify! You can pre-order “Give My Love To London” on iTunes, on CD or vinyl.

So beautiful and amazing likeness in the face. A lot of artists don’t get it right.
