Both Sides Now is the fourth studio album by Australian singer Marina Prior. It is her first studio album since Somewhere – The Songs of Sondheim and Bernstein in 1994. She says the main reason for taking so long since her last album was that she was simply busy. “The thing is because I work in theatre it is all encompassing and all consuming. You do eight shows a week and for quite a few years I went from show to show to show. I wasn’t in a position to do an album. I feel like now the time is right”.
