St. Vincent by Zackery Michael
Big Joanie, Celya AB and Snail Mail will be joining St Vincent for the UK shows.
St Vincent has added more UK gigs to the European tour she’ll be on this summer.
Before a bunch of festival appearances in July, the headline UK and Ireland tour will now start at the O2 Academy in Oxford on June 22nd, with more new dates booked in London and Bexhill.
Annie Clark is touring the 2021 LP Daddy’s Home which picked up the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album earlier this month.
“Those who reckon the Texan takes insouciance too far will be pleased to know they’re also well rewarded; The Melting Of The Sun coalesces around a warmly underplayed Rhodes, the singer crooning about the experiences of women in whose shoes she might have walked in – Joni Mitchell, Tori Amos, Nina Simone – but then confesses with a sideways glance: ‘But me, I never cried/To tell the truth, I lied’,” our review reads.
“Provocation? Only if the authenticity of the St. Vincent high concept actually bothers you. Truth seekers can also unpack both the album’s cover art and its finale, a brief and slightly ineffectual homage to Candy Darling, once of Andy Warhol’s set and, for the purposes of now anyway, a visual metaphor rich in subjectivity.”
