Digging through this year's archives for this one. Have to say this was my second-or-third favorite performance of 2010.
tUnE-yArDs is Merrill Garbus, on loopstation, drums, ukelele, and earth-scorching, soulful vocals.
I had the extreme pleasure of seeing her open along with Noveller (featured in a previous post) for Xiu Xiu back in March.
I felt sorry for Jamie Stewart, there would have been no way for Xiu Xiu to top what we had just seen here, short of acting out on the impulses which propel his quite extreme images in his lyrics...no fault of their own, but kudos to him for having her on board on tour to co-headline...even if he was Buzzcocks to her Joy Division.
