Marissa Nadler is an American dream folk musician and singer-songwriter. She plays six string guitar, 12 string guitar, piano, ukelele, banjo, and voice. Nadler studied painting at the Rhode Island School of Design, where she began her performing career after writing songs for many years. The foundation of her sound is her haunting mezzo-soprano, and a delicate 6-string acoustic guitar, often accompanied by a variety of instruments, including electric guitar, theremin, and piano. Nadler writes strange, yet classic, melancholy songs. Her voice is often bathed in a wash of reverb and space echo and creates a ghostly, atmospheric feeling to the music. She has American Gothic leanings; her songs often take place in an imagined, idealistic time with a cast of characters of her own creation.
