St Vincent Live Session and Tour

18 August 2009
By Helen True

Schmercury nominee and undeniable genius Annie Clark (or St Vincent, to her fans) has recorded a live performance with Fever Lake Sessions, which incorporates tracks from her stupendous album, Actor.

Each song has a wee bit of interesting chat at the beginning from Annie, who can charm you even when you’re not entirely sure what she’s talking about.  Watch The Strangers, Actor Out of Work, and iTunes bonus track Oh My God on lovely lovely youtube.

St Vincent will grace our shores for a few days in late October and early November, so if you want to see some of this prowessful liveness, here’s where you can do it:

31st October London, England – Barbican Hall 
1st November Dublin, Ireland –
Vicar Street
2nd November Glasgow, Scotland – ABC 
4th November Manchester, England – Cathedral
5th November Leeds, England – Leeds Metropolitan University
6th November Bristol, England – Anson Rooms
