Marissa Nadler Collaborates with Cloud Seeding On "Ink Jar"

Boston-based songstress Marissa Nadler and NY collaborative project Cloud Seeding have released a brand new video for the track "Ink Jar," as Nadler prepares for a set of North American dates with James Vincent McMorrow and a European fall tour. Spearheaded by Brooklyn-based guitarist Kevin Serra (This Ascension, Lot 49), Cloud Seeding is a music singles project conceived as a space of collaboration to showcase vocalists he admires. Nadler is the first vocalist to team up with Serra, penning the vocals for this song.Directed by Christopher Arcella, the video features actors Ray Lorini and Vera Arcella on a cosmic love journey and can be watched at YouTube or Vimeo.     

 

After releasing several albums with Kemado (and having one of her songs inspire the name for vinyl start-up Mexican Summer), Nadler ventured out independently for her critically acclaimed self-titled album, which has been featured on NPR "World Cafe: Next," NPR First Listen, Vogue, KEXP, Pitchfork 'Overlooked Records of 2011' with an 8.1 album review, and as one of SPIN's "5 Best New Artists for June," among others.

Marissa Nadler Announces Tour Dates with Timber Timbre and Low In Support of Forthcoming Album

Boston dream-folk artist, Marissa Nadler has announced US tour dates with Canadian band Timber Timbre, as well as an initial performance with Low in her hometown at the end of April. She will be touring behind her forthcoming fifth full-length album,  the first to be released via her very own label Box of Cedar Records. Produced by Brian McTear, the self-titled LP is set to be released on June 14.

On this album her ethereal songwriting remains rich with soft imagery and beautiful textures.  "It's the most honest, natural record I've ever written," Marissa admits. Before stepping out on her own, launching a successful Kickstarter campaign where devoted fans donated to support her latest recorded effort and offering a string of hand-painted records and original artwork via Etsy, Marissa released her last two critically-acclaimed efforts, Songs III: Bird on the Water (2007) and Little Hells (2009) with Kemado Records.The label's vinyl start-up Mexican Summer was also named after one of her songs.

Making music for nearly a decade, Marissa's ambition shines in all of her  creative endeavors, and she's amassed a collection of unique experiences as a performer along the way.  She will be sharing some of her most bizarre and unhinged stories as authors Ryan Walsh (Rock and Roll Will Save Your Life) and  Steve Almond (of Hallelujah The Hills), interview her at This Has Been A Disaster - Thanks For Having Us  at The Cove in Cambridge, MA on May 29. Be sure to catch her gorgeous vocals live on her upcoming tour. More dates to be announced shortly!
