Laura Marling, the highly talented escapee from Noah and the Whale, set fire to Europe in 2008 with her first album “Alas I cannot Swim”, which was nominated in England for the prestigious Mercury Prize with her delicate folk, modern but respectful of the music’s roots. Barely 19 years old, armed with the freshness and passion of youth, Laura Marling is making her mark, somewhere between Joni Mitchell and Regina Spektor.
