Laura Marling

Laura Marling

 

Hampshire folk snger/songwriter. Laura Marling is known for her distinctive and musically compelling collection of songs, run through with her fierce intelligence which have won her multiple Mercury Music Prize nominations.

Her father, Sir Charles William Somerset Marling, was himself something of an amateur singer/songwriter and owner of a recording studio. He taught her to play the acoustic guitar when she was three years old and she went on to learn the bass and piano.
 
Her early love of music led her to write songs throughout her childhood and aged 16 she left home to go to London and establish her musical career, where she would join both Noah and the Whale (scoring the hit "5 Years Time") and The Rakes as a backing singer, before leaving to pursue a solo career.

She won the Brit Award for Best British Female Solo Artist at the 2011 Brit Awards, and was nominated for the same award at the 2012, 2014 and 2016 Brit Awards.
