On the one hand it’s cutesy and commercial, at the same time it walks the line of the weird and left-field. A little riot-girrrl and a little Britney Spear-ish, Marina And The Diamonds is proving to be quite a brain-fuck for industry types trying to neatly box in this latest UK alt-pop sensation. Nevertheless, come Australia’s summer festival season, we’ll get to make up our own minds about the elusive Marina Diamandis and her eclectic treasure-chest of finger-snapping tunes.

“It’s like a mini-explosion of theatrical goodness!” she says of her live show. “It’s also a very rough performance in the flesh. I love the whole riot-girrrl era and all the girl punk bands, so it’s definitely not tame on the stage. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like I can bring my complete show to Australia the way that I do it around the UK, just because it’s very expensive. Usually it’s quite cinematic and there’s lots of amazing lights and photography, it’s just too bad.”

Diamandis is definitely bringing her chart-topping debut album The Family Jewels to our shores, however, following on from her first headlining, 70-date tour around Europe, America and Canada. Days before its release, the album peaked at number five in the UK Album Charts and was certified silver shortly after, largely thanks to singles Mowgli’s Road and Hollywood.

Last night Marina took to her Twitter account to discuss the recent cancellation of the US / Canadian ‘Burger Queen‘ tour. She confirms she had to cancel because of a prior commitments but assures us she will be back a few months later with a bigger and better tour.

Dear Americans + Canadians. Bad news. I am canceling the 1st American tour in Jan- Feb for recording commitments.

Good news: I am rescheduling a bigger tour for a few months later, including east coast and… south! Hey, Texas!! Dates announced soon. And there are so many South American diamonds now! I’ll come to you in 2011. Greece, Spain + Italy, also. And Asia, if I am lucky again.

I have done 124 tour dates this year & I feel so fortunate. Thank you to every person who bought a ticket, or The Family Jewels.
