Marissa Nadler Covers The Band

Psych-folk siren Marissa Nadler has recorded a take on "Lonesome Suzie," dressing The Band's tune in her finger-picking and ever-calming vocals. Richard Manuel would be proud. (via GvsB)

That's not fair.. when she's good she's spellbinding but I think the problem with her stuff so far is the sameiness of the melodies and arrangements which starts to become noticeable across the course of a whole album.

nothing like undermining a person's work, which is pretty complex, because she's beautiful. i didn't even know what she looked like before i saw her perform live and it was still a great - if not dark as shit - evening.
