KUALA LUMPUR: Sabahan singer Marsha Milan Londoh is back with a brand new album that celebrates a blend of tradition and modernity. The album, titled Misompuru, which means "gathering" in Kadazan-Dusun, her mother tongue, features six songs and is now available on all major music streaming platforms. In a statement yesterday, Marsha announced that fans are invited to a free listening session of the album at 4pm on July 13. The free event, themed Misompuru: Borneo Album Listening Session, will take place at RXP in REX KL, Jalan Sultan, here. Marsha shared her enthusiasm, saying, "My latest album celebrates the beauty of Borneo's traditional music, and it comes from my deep love of my motherland." She added that her new album combines elements of nostalgia with a profound affection for tradition, family, and her roots. "In other words, it is my love letter to my homeland Sabah and Borneo," she explained. "Misompuru's sound is deeply rooted in the Borneo sound and resonates with everyone who loves their homeland and family." Misompuru also marks Marsha's first significant attempt to enter the global music market. She was recently invited to perform songs from the new album at the Round ASEAN-Korea Music Festival 2025.
