"I got there in time to see Laura Marling who played acoustic guitar and was accompanied by a cellist. She was adorable and her folk songs brought Joanna Newsom & Gillian Welch to mind, high praise in my book. Her voice and lyrics are stunning, so much so, that I closed the doors at the back of the room myself so she didn't have to compete with merch/bar noise. Yeah, you're welcome." [Blackraptor]Thanks!
She went on before The Antlers who went on before Fanfarlo at the BrooklynVegan showcase Tuesday night (10/20). Tonight (10/23) she plays her only other show on this tour, at Joe's Pub (sold out). More pictures from Music Hall below...

Im so glad i was at this show and saw her. She's beautiful, has a beautiful voice, writes beautiful songs, and plays her guitar much more skillfuly than other female musicians in her genre. Did i mention everything about her was beautiful? Including her accent.
