Julia Jacklin will release her debut album this autumn.

'Don’t Let The Kids Win' is due out on October 7 via Transgressive Records. Meanwhile, you can watch the new video for Leadlight, lifted from it, below. Discussing the clip, Jacklin said:

"I filmed this in my old High school hall in the Blue Mountains. A lot of the shots focus on the stage where I performed in the chorus for 'Grease' and 'Fiddler on the Roof' and the unfortunate time I chose to sing 'Wonderwall' to a backing CD for a senior assembly. I went back there recently and saw the hall in a whole new light. When I was at school I never really thought about it, it was just a boring school hall that I was forced to sit in for long assemblies and exams. Now I think it's actually a really beautiful space, the wood detailing and the dramatic red curtains. Thought it would be nice to go back there and try and capture that on film."
