Alessi’s Ark joins Laura Marling for September US tour dates
British songwriter Alessi’s Ark will support Laura Marling on her fall US tour, playing material from her upcoming album Time travel. Having been associated with Marling for quite some time via their mutual involvement in the Sunday evening London “Communion” gigs organized by Mumford & Sons’ Ben Lovett, Alessi and Marling will bring the US version of their successful European run to the United States for a string of major-market dates.
While Mumford’s success is certainly the sun around which the artists in this particular London scene have continued to orbit, in the past several years Alessi’s Ark, Marling, Noah and the Whale, Peggy Sue, The Vaccines and several other artists whose teeth were cut in the scene have blasted off successful careers of their own, spreading the inclusiveness and songwriting-centric ethos of Lovett’s informal collective.
All of the dates, including ticket links and show times, can be found here.

In the meantime, stream Time Travel in its entirety on the Alessi’s Ark Facebook page, before its US release Sept. 27.
