Marissa Nadler (5 avril 1981) est une chanteuse folk américaine née à Washington D.C, issue d'une famille d'artistes (« My mother is an abstract painter and very eccentric. She is a clairvoyante, I'm not sure how much I believe in that kind of thing but there was always birds flying around in the house. My brother is a guitarist and a novelist, so I had a kind of renaissance family, everybody was creative »). Elle a étudié l'illustration et la peinture avant de se tourner vers la musique.
