Secret Sounds is thrilled to announce that UK folk artist Laura Marling is heading to New Zealand this October with one show at Auckland's iconic live music venue The Powerstation.

Beloved by fans around the globe, Laura Marling will head to New Zealand with a full band, on the back of her most recent release, the critically acclaimed Short Movie.

"her fifth album features more of her powerful acoustic guitar picking and strong melodic songs, but also ventures into electric territory and a semi-spoken vocal delivery, showing that she is still restless and getting more daring every time." Nick Bollinger, Radio NZ National

Released in March, Short Movie is Marling’s fifth studio album in seven years and marks a new chapter in her sound and development. The record was self produced and sees her moving towards a much bigger & electric feel. Short Movie is a much freer and looser sounding album than anything she has done before.

At just 25 Marling has already been nominated for the prestigious Mercury Prize three times (2008, 2010 and 2013), won Brit Awards, NME Awards and been nominated for many others.

Marling’s body of work is exceptional and New Zealand audiences will hear tracks from across the catalogue at these shows!
