Camera Obscura
Camera Obscura is excited to announce their long-awaited return to the US with July tour dates. Their latest album, Desire Lines (“a career best”-NPR), was released early last summer, and was followed by a US tour, which included support dates with She & Him. Soon after, Tracyanne gave birth to her first child and went on maternity leave. This past January, Gavin also became a father. Tracyanne said “the new parents are looking forward to coming over after maternity & paternity leave, and the rest are looking forward to returning to work. ” The band is also playing shows in the EU in May.
Carey Lander notes: “We are looking forward to hitting the road in the USA and Canada for some shows, especially as we finally get to make up the New York show we sadly had to cancel last year. Go book your tickets and we’ll see you soon.”
“Desire Lines is more confident and direct than anything in the band’s catalog…On this album, lust and chastity sound like equally honest parts of the same whole. The combination makes Desire Lines sound like a career best.”
-NPR
“There aren’t many groups whose fifth album is as riveting as their first, but there also aren’t many groups with a vision as clear, focused and defined as that of Camera Obscura. And with (Tracyanne) Campbell at the helm, five more of the same will be just as welcome.”
-AMERICAN SONGWRITER
“Desire Lines is another superbly crafted album, well worth the wait. Her songs return to some familiar themes, but she hasn’t come close to exhausting her melancholic muse yet, and the band’s arrangements are, as always, filled with surprise.”
-PASTE
“Desire Lines is its own nonguilty pleasure, soaked in romanticism—yet bracingly smart.”
-MOTHER JONES
Marissa Nadler
For over two decades, Marissa Nadler has carved out a singular place in the musical landscape, where ethereal folk, shadowy Americana, ambient soundscapes, shoegaze and experimental textures converge. Anchored by her unmistakable mezzo-soprano and intricate fingerstyle guitar, Nadler’s music conjures vivid emotional worlds—intimate, otherworldly, and timeless.
A prolific songwriter, Nadler has built a discography defined by spectral beauty and haunting lyricism. Her songs, dreamlike and lush, are rich with painterly imagery and emotional nuance. As The New Yorker writes, “To luxuriate in the spectral croon of Marissa Nadler is to step into a noirish world of mystery and glamour,” while AllMusic praises her “epic, aching songs, which refuse to keep tragedy at arm’s length.”
Shortly after earning her bachelors and masters degrees from the Rhode Island School of Design, Nadler released her breakthrough debut Ballads of Living and Dying (2004), a collection that announced her as a major voice in the underground. A skilled visual artist as well, Nadler’s background in painting and drawing deeply informs the cinematic scope of her songwriting.
Following her early releases, she partnered with Sacred Bones and Bella Union for July (2014), marking a new chapter in both creative clarity and critical acclaim. Albums like Strangers (2016), For My Crimes (2018), and The Path of the Clouds (2021) further expanded her sonic palette while preserving the deep emotional resonance at the core of her work. As Brooklyn Vegan notes, “Just about everything she puts out is truly mesmerizing.”
Her tenth full-length album, New Radiations, arrives August 15th. Expansive, melodic, and emotionally vivid, it captures Nadler at her most personal and visionary—an artist continually evolving, yet unmistakeable.
