Laura Marling – Alas I Cannot Swim LP

Laura Marling – Alas I Cannot Swim

"LAURA MARLING is the truly exciting, individual voice of the moment" - NME

"There's no stopping her now" - Independent

"MARLING displays a rare gift for melody" - Observer Music Monthly

"If I listen to New Romantic one more time I may just propose to her myself" - NME

"I always said I'd never write love songs, but that was when I was young and didn't know what love was. So now I write love songs - but they're not very nice." - LAURA MARLING

LAURA MARLING may still be young, but she's certainly not stupid. The 17-year-old doesn't just sing about love, lust and romance but about the pointlessness of religions, self-loathing and human psychology. The latest doll in the pop business - she's definitely not.
