I don't hear much about her, but I think she's amazing.

"Melodramatic Popular Song / Gothic / Americana" that's how Marissa Nadler describes herself on her myspace page.

Found her on this blog today (you can download the track Diamond Heart in full):
http://gorillavsbear.blogspot.com/

"As a vocalist Nadler is considerably less idiosyncratic than such peers as Joanna Newsom or Josephine Foster, and here her dusky, lived-in soprano settles diffusely between contemporaries like Hope Sandoval and Chan Marshall, and 60s-era folkies like Vashti Bunyan or Mimi Farina" Pitchfork Media

Beautiful, enchanting stuff.

Sure! I've heard some songs of hers. They are haunting.

I'm listening to Diamond Heart now. Thanks!

Wondered if you'd drop by El Daisy Dee!

I love these tracks, looking forward to the album.

Songs III: Bird On The Water is my first great album of '07.
I can't stop playing this!

EDIT: her myspace page has a cover of Cortez The Killer on it right now.

I still love Vashti and Hope. Please let Hope release something new soon! I had a Cat Power phase, but not into her anymore. Does anyone here have or like Newsom's YS? I'm tempted to buy it, especially for the V.D. Parks involvement, but those vocals I don't know.......they remind me of Bjork, who I can't listen to.....are there ever any instrumental breaks on YS, or is it a constant barrage of lyrics?
