Marissa Nadler

Spinning on Air | May 18, 2010

The intimacy of Marissa Nadler's songs is shaded by cobwebs and apparitions. She's a young songwriter with an affinity for old ghost stories, murder ballads, and Edgar Allen Poe, as well as her own visions of contemporary life. Marissa joins host David Garland to talk about and perform her songs in the WNYC Studio. Marissa's new album, Little Hells, comes out this week, and she'll sing several songs from that album.
