A short word about... Laura Marling - Nottingham


Laura Marling was picked to support Neil Young again - after a slot at last year's Hop Farm in the rain - Laura seemed a bit shy and nervous opening with a few old songs - "My Manic","Ghosts", a little bit uneven in her delivery perhaps, but she settled down and Laura and her band delivered a really confident set - it was like listening to Dolly Parton for one of the songs - such a strong voice - sorry I don't have the set list.

I believe that her songs will out - Laura was robbed of the Mercury Music Prize - her debut album is a work of genius and all the more so for her age - if she were to stay on this plane she will be superb as she matures further who knows what heights she may reach?
