Oct 16, 2015 Laura Marling By Christopher Roberts

Laura Marling has announced five U.S. tour dates this November she’s dubbing as the “Tour De Ville.” Marling and her three-piece backing band will be playing more stripped down sets and trying out brand new material. Sounds like she’ll be recording the shows too. Here’s how a press release describes it:

“This November she and her three piece band, after a year of fuller sounding shows, go back to basics, throw their minimal gear in a van and head out on a five date U.S. tour, with a view to debut and capture a crop of new material, encompassing the intimacy between song and audience. Routed to reflect Laura’s connection to a road tripping lifestyle, the ‘Tour De Ville’ is an exclusive invitation to experience first hand, in a series of intimate venues, an evening of never before heard music as you the audience become part of the journey in the next chapter of Laura Marling.”

The press release points out that because brand new material is being performed, attendees aren’t allowed to bring cellphones or other recording devices into the venues. Marling’s latest album, Short Movie, was released earlier this year. The dates are below. Also read our interview with Marling about Short Movie.
