Lilli Cooper and More Set for Blake Daniel's Laura Marling Concert at Joe's Pub

Covering songs from Laura Marling's 6 critically acclaimed albums, Blake Daniel will tell stories of his 10-year relationship with New York in his first solo concert appearance.

After being raised in a two-stoplight town in North Georgia, Daniel moved to New York at 17 to join the original Broadway production of Spring Awakening. It was then he discovered Marling's music, who was also 17 years old at the time, and whose songs voiced feelings of young love and teenage fatalism that perfectly spoke to his current period of transformation.

Through a mirror of her award-winning canon, this show will reflect memories of Daniel's experiences over the years that followed, each continually echoed by Marling's own musical journey: discovering his sexuality, adapting his ambitions, coping with depression, and highlighting career milestones.

Blake Daniel made his Broadway debut in the 8-Time Tony Award-winning musical Spring Awakening. Off-Broadway, he originated the role of 'The Young Thing' in The Transport Group's revival of Michael John LaChuisa's Hello Again, for which he earned a Drama League Award nomination alongside his cast mates. Other theatre includes works at New York Stage and Film, Playwrights Horizons, and The Public Theatre. Film: Bradley Rust Gray's Jack and Diane. TV: It Could Be Worse (Hulu).
