Marissa Nadler acoustic session @Route du Rock

Concert information

With her long dess, guitar-case, and gentle allure, Marissa Nadler feels like the classic folk singer. After her concert at the Palais du Grand Large (St Malo, Route du Rock festival), she accepted our invitation to play a few tracks... Outside, under a tree, we sat and listened to her sweet & dreamy folk sounds that gently carried us away!

Artist

Marissa Nadler

Marissa Nadler is an American dream-folk and fine artist based in Boston. She has a background in visual arts at the Rhode Island School of Design, she has since made a career as a musician. It's not surprising to find Nadler crafts music with melodies and lyrics steeped in rich imagery and beautiful textures. With a sound somewhere between the hazy melodies of Mazzy Star and the folk sensibilities of Vashti Bunyan, Nadler pieces together beautiful, dreamy folk music on her fourth solo album, Little Hells. With the help of a trio of talented musicians, Nadler's new release boasts an even richer sound.

Nadler's music may contain less 'freak' folk or experimental elements than much of the music evolving from the folk scene today, but it is no less relevant or intriguing. The synthesizer, organ, and lap steel layer nicely with Nadler's ethereal voice and give her music a sound that is somehow both melancholy and triumphant. Ranging from ghosts, angels, and dead flowers to running away to join the circus, the topics on Little Hells are just as eerily beautiful as the music. more>>>
