Laura Marling : Blackberry Stone & Cross Your Fingers live : Field Day 2008

Mercury Prize nominee Laura Marling performs live on the Converse Century/ Eat Your Own Ears Stage at Field Day , Victoria Park, London E3 on 9 August 2008.

Songs included are Blackberry Stone, Cross Your Fingers and Crawled Out Of The Sea.

Laura played a great set, undeterred by the weather, the alleged lack of tuners, the less than perfect sound and an absent keyboard player (stuck on the M25!). Laura's band here does, however, include Marcus & Ted from Mumford and Sons (on drums/vocals and bass respectively).

Noah And The Whale had earlier played on the same stage (without Laura).

Where's Marcus? Isn't that him in back-up vocals?

If you watch the clip right to the end you will see Marcus singing (and drumming) briefly at 6m57.
