The Boston-based musician and painter moves between dark folk, dream pop, and psychedelic soundscapes.
Marissa Nadler’s songs are like fleeting encounters with another reality. Contrary to her otherwise cheerful nature, themes such as death and grief are reflected in the American artist’s lyrics. Her unmistakable voice floats above echoing guitars and dark soundscapes. Her songs deal with longing, loss, and hidden abysses—stories that remain in the half-light and, precisely because of that, linger in the mind.
For over two decades, Nadler has been developing a unique body of musical work that defies any clear categorization. With ten solo albums and numerous collaborations, she moves between intimate ballads, narrative songs, and multi-layered arrangements. On her tenth album, *New Radiations*, Nadler continues this musical exploration. Her songs repeatedly address unbridgeable distances and separations that will last forever. Her music is at once fragile and eerie, familiar and foreign.
