Sunday night I saw Feist in concert here, at the end of her touring for Let It Die and before returning to the studio. Below is a mini-review of the show, which included a lot of the songs from this album.
Leslie Feist and her band weren’t long in taking the stage. She blew us all away with ease. I was so impressed with every element of her show, from the stunning a cappella performance that had her voice looping from bits recorded on the stage to the flawless performances of such dear songs as “Mushaboom,” “When I Was A Young Girl,” (a highlight of the night for me!) “Gatekeeper,” “Secret Heart” and “Let It Die.” She has such an incredible voice, and her band was very impressive in its own right. It was her stage presence that galvanized the crowd, however; she was as luminous as her voice, and the energy that fed the crowd was palpable. It was one of the most thrilling performances I’ve ever been present for.
