I know about them and I'm always meaning to check them out.

I do know that I didn't get tickets to their upcoming show. :evil:

But this came up, I thought some of you might find it interesting...

Sounds like Byrne is keeping busy, nice to hear!
Thanks for passing the link along.
Not familiar with St. Vincent so I'm off to check them out.

ohhhhhh great!! * - *
she's kinda flying higher and higher, wow thats promising
st. vincent is like my brightest diamond, is just a woman responsible for the whole creation and a support band, btw shes kinda MBD but pretty more popish. annie's second album is great, made a little fuzz last year, that expains byrne working with her.

She's a pedal nerd:

I'm so in love with St. Vincent. Her music is just so gorgeous and lush, as is her voice. She's not bad looking either ;)

See her live if you can. She's an absolutely amazing performer. She definitely gives you your moneys worth, that's for damn sure.

Just now had time to listen to this. :roll:
I used to be able to play Dig a Pony. Sort of. It's tricky.

I'm downloading a show from last Feb. at the El Rey, I'll let you know what it's like.

I believe Ronnie Wood has jammed with her for a couple of shows.

I've listen to her few month ago for a first time, and it was like "hm... nice. maybe some polly now?" xD And yesterday I came across "The Bed" and "Your Lips Are Red" just after that... Awesome! Listen to those over and over. So magical, chaotic... Just love it :)

I'll have to be Debarra Downer. I did see her live recently and I was not impressed. It really sounded like knock-off Feist (?) I hate to be like that but I was bored throughout her whole set. She also had no stage presence whatsoever. Stood in the same head-down position for an hour. Moved her knee some. I yawned twice. On the plus side, her voice was occasionally pretty. Live, I couldn't pair her string section with her. They kept playing very loudly and sometimes it was beautiful but it never paired up with her in a way that interested me. It just seemed like a "side of noise". Maybe I didn't get it.

I quite like her track on Byrne's Here Lies Love, so I'm hoping for the best.

I thought she sounded like Feist when I started listening to her. Just a much better version.

I love Laughing with a Mouth of Blood even though the video is fucking trash.

Aww, maybe she was tired or having a bad day? lol.

For me Feist is actually hit or miss. She doesn't grab my attention as much as St Vincent does, but as they say, to each their own :wink:
