Laura Marling - Alas I Cannot Swim 180 Gram Vinyl LP

Catalogue Number RBN006

Ribbon Music is pleased to announce a deluxe re-issue of Laura Marling’s critically acclaimed album; Alas I Cannot Swim on LP. Alas I Cannot Swim was the young British singer/songwriter’s debut album originally released in 2008. The recording features contributions by Charlie Fink and Tom Hobden (Noah and The Whale) and Marcus Mumford (Mumford & Sons).

"Alas I Cannot Swim" is a collection of British folk classics in the making, with hints of psychedelia and the odd rock riff that was enough to catch the attention of Neil Young's people (she landed herself a suitable support slot for Young recently). She's definitely a Joni Mitchell fan, but there's so many other references in her unique style it's as entertaining picking them out as it is listening to those fresh, heartfelt tunes!

Since her emergence onto the London music scene in 2007 Laura Marling has steadily secured her position as one of the most exciting musical talents of her generation. By the tender age of 21 she has already won a BRIT award and been nominated for the UK Mercury Music prize twice. While so many artists of any age attempt to locate their inner child, Marling with a sometime steely gaze, measures the prerogatives of youth against the looming realities of adulthood, the specter of mortality, the betrayals of love, the balm of sex, the yearning for companionship, the need for independence.

Marling, who started out, briefly but auspiciously, with a stint in the group Noah and the Whale, was a mere 16 when she independently released her first singles and almost immediately gained serious stature as a key figure on Britain’s burgeoning young folk scene, alongside such artists and friends as singer/actor Johnny Flynn and Mumford & Sons.
