Brit-folkstress Laura Marling is to head out on a UK tour in the coming month(s), but not before supporting the legendary Daniel Johnston on his UK tour. Cool, huh?
Ms. Marling has been working on the follow-up to 2008's Alas, I Cannot Swim, which will be released early next year, we believe. Work out where to get your slice of the Marlster below.
First up are the Daniel Johnston dates:
October:
31 - London, Bloomsbury Ballroom
November:
1 - Brighton, Concorde 2 2 - London, Union Chapel SOLD OUT 3 - Manchester, Great Hall 4 - Edinburgh, Queens Hall 5 - Gateshead, Sage 6 - Leeds, Brudenell Social Club SOLD OUT 7 - Leeds, Brudenell Social Club 8 - Bristol, Trinty Arts Centre
And then the headlining solo tour.
10 - Birmingham, Ikon Gallery SOLD OUT 11 - Cardiff, Norwegian Church SOLD OUT 14 - Inverness, The Ironworks 15 - Glasgow, The Studio 16 - Fort William, Fired Art 17 - Mull, An Tobar 19 - Manchester, Salford Sacred Trinity SOLD OUT 23 - London, St Pancras, Old Church SOLD OUT
Here's what 'Ghosts' sounds like, taken from Alas. We would have given you the official video for it, but the people at EMI have engaged in the rather annoying practice of disabling embedding of their artists' videos. Practical.
