Her album, Actor, came out late last year. "Marrow" blew my mind, and still does every time I listen to it. St. Vincent is the moniker under which Annie Clark (American singer-songriter, multi-instrumentalist) performs. She was a member of The Polyphonic Spree, that epic band with almost 25 members (practically an orchestra) and has now gone solo. Clark has opened shows for such acts as The National, Television, Arcade Fire, Briertone, Andrew Bird, Jolie Holland, John Vanderslice, Midlake, Tracy + the Plastics, Tuck & Patti, Xiu Xiu, Death Cab for Cutie, Cristina Donà and Grizzly Bear. She now lives in Brooklyn, along with every other hipster musician on Earth.
Her production is so ingenious and cinematic that I can't help but dig it, big time.
How 'bout this video? When the beat drops?!?! Whoa...
