for more go to - http://www.lauramarling.com/ - Marling was born in Hampshire, England, the youngest of three daughters of a music teacher, and learned guitar at an early age. Her father, who ran a recording studio, introduced her to folk music and shaped her musical taste. This was "a bit of a blessing and a bit of a curse. I couldn't slot myself into the age-appropriate genre", she later remembered. Marling was educated at Leighton Park School, a private Quaker school in Reading, Berkshire. She has said that during this time she felt uneasy around other people and had a fear of death.[4]
At the age of 16 Laura Marling moved to London, where she soon became part of a cluster of intertwined bands drawn to acoustic instruments and tradition-tinged melodies which formed to movement labeled "nu-folk" by the British press. She became part of the original line-up of indie folk band Noah and the Whale and was romantically linked with singer/guitarist Charlie Fink. She is featured as a background vocalist on their debut album Peaceful, the World Lays Me Down; however, she left the group before the album's 2008 release and split up with Fink that same year. She also appeared on The Rakes track "Suspicious Eyes", from the band's 2007 album Ten New Messages, credited as 'Laura Marlin'. Marling would later collaborate with Mystery Jets, contributing guest vocals to the single "Young Love", released 10 March 2008. Previously, Marling was in a relationship with Marcus Mumford; they broke up around Christmas 2010, but are reportedly still friends.

@xCulturedLeftFootx it's not like I write this on every video in which there is a woman, and I am a girl myself, so I can assure you that I didn't mean that she's hot. I am completely in love with all her work and I didn't mean what I said in a rude way, I have like a platonic crush on her ..moreover I could totally say the same thing about Johnny Flynn. I am travelling from Milan to Liverpool to see her live, so don't be mean, because there is no need

@Marlens93 Gah.... Why is it whenever a woman does something, everyone feels the need to comment on how she looks (and yeah, I know you mean beautiful voice/talent/person etc, but you also mean she's hot...) It's pathetic. You don't catch people saying that about a good looking, talented guy. "OMG, I just can't believe Zack de le Rocha could be so beautiful".
Grow up.
