Laura Marling beckons in the autumn

There is no point in watching Laura Marling at a festival. Her music is not made for huge audiences on sunny days or muddy fields. It is precision-targetted at headphone listeners on autumnal evenings, as the browning leaves congregate on the windowsill and the dust of the summer is scorched by the central heating.

Her new single Sophia premiered online today. It's pretty good. But when it's released in September, it will sound 100 times better.
