| Cat Power: magnum dose of minimalism |
|
Live: Cat Power
Shepherds Bush Empire, London
Wednesday, March 31, 2004
Cat Power: from spellbinding to monotonous minimalism
Cat Power = New York singer/songwriter called Chan Marshall.
Fifth album: ‘You are Free’
Style: minimalism (although Dave Grohl drummed on the current album)
Live craft: stripped down to guitar or piano and two microphones; often performs with her back to the audience or sideways
Verdict: If Mel Gibson is the God’s lethal weapon, Cat People is the Eden’s lo-fi vamp.
