*Follow WHIP* [Twitter](https://twitter.com/WHIPRADIO) [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/whipradiotu/) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/whipradio/)By: ZACHARY MATTHEW MARINA, formerly known as Marina and the Diamonds, has recently rebranded and reemerged with a new album, *LOVE + FEAR*, and a tour coming in 2019.The Welsh indie pop artist made the announcement on Twitter yesterday, announcing the album’s name and release date, April 16. MARINA just recently debuted a new single, *Handmade Heaven*, on February 8, which will make an appearance on the album. She was also featured on *Baby* by Clean Bandit, also featuring Luis Fonsi, which will appear on the singer’s upcoming album as well. With her last album, *Froot*, coming out in early 2015 to mixed reviews, MARINA has a lot to prove with this new comeback. Although an indie artist, she was extremely popular in 2012 after dropping *Electra Heart*, only her second album, but fell off of the radar after *Froot* left a lot to be desired with her fanbase.But *LOVE + FEAR* has a lot of promise consisting of two 8-track collections, making 16 tracks total with the two collections combined. MARINA also announced a North American tour, also called *LOVE + FEAR*, that will hit parts of Canada and a number of major cities in the U.S. (including Philadelphia). The tour starts in September, only five months after the album drops.   Source: <https://pitchfork.com/news/marina-nee-and-the-diamonds-announces-new-album-and-tour/>
