Video: St. Vincent: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
Via NPR Music. MASSEDUCTION is out now on Loma Vista.
This is so good. I really like MASSEDUCTION but I’d love to hear her do the entire album like this. Although she’s known for shredding her electric guitar, the latest St. Vincent album subverts those expectations to a certain extent by burying her guitars under programmed beats.
And this Tiny Desk Concert goes in the opposite direction entirely. No pre-recorded beats, no electric instruments at all. Just Annie Clark and an acoustic guitar. She’s awesome. And that Elvis snarl? 100% badass.
Set List: “New York,” “Los Ageless,” and “Slow Disco.”
