Ballads of Living and Dying is Marissa Nadler's first album, released in 2004 on Eclipse Records.
Nadler first began recording her songs onto cassette at an early age. When she turned 16, her parents gifted her a couple hours in a recording studio. When she entered art school in Providence, Rhode Island, she would perform at open mic events. This eventually led to her recording her first album: "I had a boyfriend at the time and he recorded that record for me over the course of many months and we fell in love during the recording, and he ended up being the subject matter for several albums after!"
All songs written by Marissa Nadler, except where noted.
Recorded, mixed and produced by Myles Baer at Black Hole Sound Studios, 2003-2004.
