Masachusetts-based
Marissa Nadler may not write the punk and hardcore songs that revitalized the DIY movement in the 80s, but the singer-songwriter has gone a similar route. For her first two albums,
Ballads of Living and Dying and
The Saga of Mayflower May, Nadler sent personalized copies to countless magazines and websites. Today, her
intimate, delicate songs, anchored by her haunted, otherworldly voice that belies the 26-year olds age, are helping her reach a greater audience and preventing her from licking all her own stamps. Just dont take a picture of her while shes performing.
