Nurse & Soldier's Marginalia is gentle, bewildered psych-pop from the partnership of Robertson Thacher (aka Bobby Matador of Oneida) and longtime collaborator Erica Fletcher.

The two have been making music together since their teenage years, a long history reflected in the intimate nature of the music.

Far more vulnerable and raw than Oneida, Nurse & Soldier sing about longing, betrayal and reconciliation; the sound of Marginalia is a confused murmur, as opposed to Oneida's punishing roar.

The two multi-instrumentalists sing and play organs, guitars, synths, woodwinds, drums, and more - they are also joined by friends, including regular collaborator Jake Bailey (guitar, organ, drums) and Kid Millions of Oneida (drums).

Marginalia is their second fulllength record, following 2001's self-released Ancient History.

All songs were recorded in Brooklyn, New York during the current century.
