Both talented and striking, Laura Marling is a rare and unique artist.
Marling, a folk songstress from London, is on a tour in support of her fourth record Once I was an Eagle, and we’ve got tickets to give away for her appearance at the Lincoln Theatre on September 4. Singer-songwriter Jay Brannan is opening, so the list of “better things for you to do” is short enough for you to go ahead and put your name in the hat.
Marling has been winning over audiences with her mature folk compositions that carry an uncanny air of overcoming ill occasions. Her voice and performance have a reserved confidence that underscore an undeniable stage presence.
Jay Brannan is a singer-songwriter with a soft touch, operating with a finger or two on the listener’s heart-strings. Talented in his ability and the context of his lyricism, Brannan creates sweet pop songs that touch on current issues and the before/ during /after part of that intimate human interaction thing called “relationships.”
So how can you get tickets to such a unique show? It’s simple! In the comments below, tell us your favorite UK songstress other than Laura Marling. Since I’m a sucker for jazzy girls, I’m going to have to go with Plaster of Paris’ Molly Carrol.
The winner will be chosen at noon on Friday, August 30. Tickets are still available.
