Tunesday Tuesday: Laura Marling Love

So today I have been listening to one of my all time favorite musicians, Laura Marling cos today she released her newest album, A Creature I Don’t Know. I have to say, after listening to this album a few times in a row, I think it is very good, but I still like her first album the best. Laura Marling is a British singer. We got the chance to see her play last year in Atlanta, and even Raoul said she was fun to see perform, even though he is not as big of a fan as I am, he did enjoy the show.

You know how you just hear a voice and know you will love everything from them from first glance? That is how I was with this music. Smitten. Taken. Floating to another place and time. I love that and I love her stories within the music.

These photos of her are pulled from image searches. See how adorable she is? And she is even more adorable when we saw her play in Atlanta! I first read about Laura Marling in 2007 in Nylon Magazine. I was hooked from the first listen. I do not usually go on Youtube, but I looked at some of her videos and they are really very good, too. Here is one you might like called Ghosts.

And here is a song called Rambling Man from the last album. This is a lovely video. ❤

    Hi Emily - that is neat that video was filmed in Brighton! I would like to visit there! I am glad you like my Etsy shop. Thank you so much for your kind words!

    Charlotte - she is one of my absolute favorites, too! She is up there with Joanna Newsom and Alessi's Ark for me. Those are my three favorites.
