Laura Marling, London folk songbird and former member of Noah and the Whale, has announced an extended tour of America in May. This will be her second set of dates on this side of the pond this year after a short tour in February. Marling is scheduled to perform at two of the more alternative summer music festivals in the UK, Hop Farm Festival in Kent and Latitude Festival in Suffolk, both in July.
I Speak Because I Can, Marling’s second album that sees her going back to a more traditional folk sound, was released in the UK on March 22. The album will be released in America on April 6.
