I saw St. Vincent at El Rey in Los Angeles and it was easily one of the top performances I have seen all year. Annie is an incredibly gifted vocalist and musician, and her skills translate unbelievably well in a live setting. Still thinking about it sends chills down my spine.

Great concert from St. Vincent this spring in NY. I was wondering how some of the back-up vocals would be handled, seeing as how Annie is really the only singer. The opening track (Strangers) didn't fare so well in that regard, but it got better as the show went on. The whole band has admirable chops, and they did a high-energy show.

I liked the show and the venue. The opening act (pattern is movement) was good but I'm also glad they didn't play too many songs like some opening acts do. It was a good balance. St. Vincent was fun to hear and watch. The venue was a good size (small, but not cramped).

I will say that Pattern is Movement was a fantastic opener, but St. Vincent gave a very dull performance. It just seemed lazy, vocally and musically, which is a real shame because I love her music.

St. Vincent is a small girl with a powerful voice. The huge band behind her keeps the energy up. She was witty and did well in such a small venue. I'm new to her music but she kept me entertained and I was touched by the feeling of her voice.

Pattern Is Movement was the cutest opener ever, but I have a thing for awkward guys - they summed it up when, at the end of their set, they looked up to the crowd and said, "this is our music, thank you for listening to our music."

Also, she plays in a way that makes you want to see her many times! The music will never get old...never.

Seeing St. Vincent perform in person raised this ensemble of musicians to new, unimaginable levels of musical accomplishment in my mind. I thought surely they wouldn't be able to out do the easy musical genius I often find myself singing along to at home until I saw them play live.

From my perspective, this performance raised the bar for all other performers, as each band member shifted between different instruments, melodies and rhythms; giving each person an individual purpose. A truly stupendous musical group who should be regaled for their ability to be diverse, yet completely unified.

Easily five stars and beyond!!!

St. Vincent put on a great show! Pattern is movement was good too. The show itself was great. The venue was small (which isn't necessarily a huge issue), the crowd was very small and very lifeless. This part of the show was very disappointing, and negatively affected the enjoyment levels of the show.

I'd long awaited the performance of St. Vincent at Webster Hall because I had recently fallen in love with her album. I listened to the songs nearly everyday and was very excited to see them performed live, believing that the vocals lent themselves very well to a live performance.
Unfortunately, I was greatly disappointed. After a forgettable opening act, St. Vincent's performance did little to wake me up and I wound up leaving early--a first for me. I spent most of the show sitting in a corner because the slow music and blasé stage presence was making me sleepy. I only wish they played more upbeat songs and put a little more energy into the performance. I don't know if it was a poor set list or just a bad night, but I do know I'm not planning on spending money to see St. Vincent again anytime soon.

st. vincent is a super talented group of musicians. they're all well-versed in more than one instrument and contribute to the multi-faceted sound that matches the quality put forth on the record. seeing them live for the first time was a memorable experience. annie mixes her delicate vocals with her violent guitar playing in an effortless air.

and the opening act, pattern is movement, which i've neither seen nor heard of before, were amazing. two bearded gents that play keyboards and drums with strangely fitting operatic vocals. a weird mix of waltz-like melodies, fluttering vocals, and disjointed percussion. truly original.

Annie Clark was beautiful and brilliant as she wowed the crowd with her amazing guitar playing and her angelic voice. Playing new songs off "The Actor" her new CD and a handful of favorites from her last CD "Marry me" St Vincent put on a fabulous performance insuring that I will see her and her band whenever they come to the NY area.

I used to be a huge huge St. Vincent fan. I figured she'd be amazing live. Boy was I wrong. It was sooo boring! She did not perform for the audience she just played the music how it was. She barely talked to the audience. She played stuff off her new album which I didn't know and it was boring boring boring. God I was so sad I spent 15 bucks on this! I even left early.

Any show @ the Somerville Theatre is usually a great one. St. Vincent was no exception. w/ a fantastic opening set by Pattern is Movement, Annie Clark and her uber-talented band shrouded us with her cinematic soundscapes. An absoulute pleasure to see, and hear.

Wrapping herself around the guitar in a death hold grip, Annie claws away flesh from bones, revealing the heart of the beast. A professional hysteric, the slaughter and rebirth occur in a single moment of precision and intensity. A musical mastery. Shamanic journey?

This show was on a the second night of her first tour behind Actor (her second album). Eventhough she claimed "it's better that it's the second night, rather than the second to last night, when we'll all be dead" I might disagree because it seemed like the band hadn't quite gotten its sea legs with no the new songs (almost all songs were from her new album). The sound was a little blurry and there were parts that should have ripped that just didn't get enough umphf from the sound guy. She's a great songwriter and guitarist and I would have like to get more time to listen to the album before I came because the performance, while together, wasn't quite what I hoped for. I think this could change over the course of the tour once they have more practice performing the songs.

Annie Clark (aka St. Vincent) is an incredibly skilled and charismatic performer. Her guitar skills are matched by few and her vocal prowess is undeniable. As she convulsed and jumped around the stage during more upbeat and aggressive numbers such as "Marrow" and "Your Lips Are Red," she left no doubt in anyone's mind that attending one of her shows is a true privilege. During more introspective songs such as "The Bed" and "Oh My God," Clark's sincere emotional investment in her music and performances was more than crystal clear. A lighter moment occurred when she asked the audience to clap in time with the beats to "Marry Me." Much of the audience clapped beats that didn't exist within the song and she had to pause and laugh. It was "Your Lips Are Red," however, that truly "stole the show." This tour's arrangement transforms it into a breathtaking epic noise-rock anthem. Clark's live show is truly not to be missed by anyone who enjoys her music.
