Laura Marling
Artist Description
Alas I Cannot Swim' Laura's debut album, is produced by Noah And The Whale mainman Charlie Fink, and besides its warm, sweet arrangements for guitar, trumpet, brushed drums and even a male choir, the album is infused with a real intimacy.
You'll notice that this album doesn't just appear in a 'normal' format - the music is part of a 'Song Box', designed by Laura, which contains postcards, trinkets and stories - plus a concert ticket to her shows in March. 'The idea came of a conversation I had with a guy who owned the studio I was recording in,' says Marling. 'He said he was depressed with the way music's going, because nobody buys records any more and people are listening to MP3s on bad headphones, using music for wallpaper.' So, she designed the chart-ineligible, beautifully printed 'Song Box': 'I want people to love music,' she says, 'I want people to treasure it, not just my songs, but treasure music.'

Laura Marling is Magnificent!
Laura Marling is a spectacular solo artist. Her guitar playing is fantastic and her singing is phenomenal. Her talent is good enough to make any singer/ songwriter jealous. Her short but delightful performance left you wanting more. I'm 15 and it was amazing seeing Laura Marling, my musical inspiration, perform. her show was a pleasure and her cellist Ruth was nice too. Comeback to Joe's soon Laura!
