EMA @ Biltmore Cabaret, Vancouver, October 8, 2011

I was at a show at SXSW waiting for the band to come on when I noticed a blonde woman standing nearby.  She stood out because she had a very chunky (and ugly) EMA necklace.  I found out a few days later that she was an artist and had just released an album.  Her single hit Pitchfork and she started to get a fair bit of blog love.  She pretends to shoot a gun in the video and in some of her promo shots which is just ... dumb.  Fast forward a few months and she was announced as support for Wild Beasts, which is quite a bizarre pairing.  There were moments in the set which I quite enjoyed, but overall I wasn't sold.  Not sure what it was ... she's on my radar but I'm not a fan yet.
