AD Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Ever get the feeling indie rock's just turning into one huge clique? Britt Daniel and A.C. Newman are playing together, Patrick Wolf's kicking it with Grizzly Bear, Junior Boys are remixing the Decemberists, Peter Bjorn and John hook up with a new indie gal vocalist pretty much every time they play "Young Folks", and basically everybody's in Broken Social Scene. Now comes word that Feist (indeed in Broken Social Scene) will be joined onstage this very night (August 27) by members of BSS, the New Pornographers, Grizzly Bear, the National, and Mates of State.Lucky for you, this gathering has an open invitation for anyone with a television and antennae that pick up CBS (or a computer and, cough, YouTube), as the performance in question is none other than Feist's "Late Show With David Letterman" appearance. Tune in at 11:30 p.m. (Eastern) tonight and catch Feist joined by choir comprised of Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning of Broken Social Scene, Carl "A.C." Newman of the New Pornographers, Aaron Dessner, Bryan Devendorf, and Scott Devendorf of the National, Nicole Atkins, everybody in Grizzly Bear, and both Mates of State.Maybe she'll even rope "Letterman" guest Susan Sarandon into lending her pipes?Feist kicks off a brief North American tour at the end of this month, then sets sail for Europe.

Northern Wish Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 As for Feist being included on a rundown list of indie rockers, here’s the thing: You’re no longer “indie†when your song is anchoring the main PR campaign for one of Paris’ oldest fashion houses. Sorry Feist, but Lacoste got booted off the doorman’s cool list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
