Marissa
Nadler "The Saga Of Mayflower May"
UAR047 CD
Released: 2007-03-31
Out of the contemporary New York folk scene comes
this jewel that could have been released fresh out of Bleecker Street
in the 60’s. With a voice and delivery that has been compared
to Gillian Welch, Judy Collins, Sandy Denny and Vashti Bunyan, Marissa’s
music will attract both the old and new school fans of folk music.
Unstable Ape Records is proud to announce Marissa Nadler as its first
international licensing. ‘The Saga of Mayflower May’
is a concept album that exclusively covers murder ballad territory.
Its sparse delivery focusing intently on Marissa haunting soprano and
stunning guitar work has gathered the album much high-sung praise from
sources such as Mojo Magazine, Pitchfork Media and also from a long
legion of fans across the world.
