Feist



Caught Leslie Feist in Philadelphia last night. If one has listened to anything other than her "1,2,3,4" iPod commercial song, they would probably agree that this Grammy nominated artist from Canada is on point. Her vocal quality and pitch is phenomenal. I love how she uses a loop pedal to record live raw harmony layers and then sings her main vocal over them. After finishing one piece, the lights dropped and she let the loop run for a few bars by itself...very nice! Her band members all play multiple instruments (including horns!) and pitch in on harmonies as well. The stage backdrop was a continuous projector shadow art progression run by two talented young ladies. Great show.
