Mortal City is Dar Williams' second album, released in January 1996 by Razor & Tie.
The songs "As Cool as I Am" and "The Christians and the Pagans" were released as singles in 1996; the former was also accompanied by a music video. Unlike Williams' previous album, The Honesty Room, which was entirely acoustic, Mortal City featured electric backup on a number of the album's songs, particularly "The Ocean" and "The Blessings".
Joan Baez covered the song "February" on the album Gone from Danger.
All songs written by Dar Williams, except where noted.
