2008 Nationwide Mercury Prize Albums


Laura Marling - Alas I Cannot Swim
Reading's Laura Marling, 18, released her debut album Alas I Cannot Swim on Virgin Records in February 2008. She learned to play guitar at an early age and her talents have led to recent collaborations with The Rakes and tours with Rufus Wainwright and Devendra Banhart. 'Beautiful composed and emotionally compelling tales of fear and romance' The Judging Panel

Portico Quartet - Knee-Deep In The North Sea
Formed in 2005, the four-piece group, all in their early 20s, were discovered after regularly busking outside the National Theatre in London and signed to The Vortex label in 2007. Portico Quartet make unique use of the hang, a recently-invented Swiss percussion instrument which underpins the album's double bass and saxophone-driven melodies. 'Exuberant, hypnotic acoustic music - an unusual new jazz sound' The Judging Panel
