Tune-Yards Perform "Bizness"

[SYLBM]

great performance. this chick is 1000x better than that adele bitch

[TheDancingleopard]

My jaw has hit the floor. That woman can SING.

[penius72]

it's so easy to use a looper. don't get surprised for something so simple. .... could be better.. but that terrible yells..!

[airforcefoo]

@penius72 Bullshit. Nothing about that is easy. She plays all the percussion and sings all the backing vocals for the entire song at the beginning and builds the entire song on top of it. Live. That's fucking talent. Even if all she was doing was singing, it would be amazing, but she's doing way more.

[penius72]

@airforcefoo maybe is not easy for you because your'e not a musician. but for musicians, its VERY easy. but I'm not talking about her talent, but about what people say about it. She's talented but not supernatural. That's my point. thnx. --sorry my bad English.

[penius72]

pinche mamada engañabobos. sólo porque no saben lo que es un looper piensan que es maravilloso.

[kahluaqueen]

whooooo! This is POWERFUL! This gives me a whole spiritual experience!!!



[LadyMelmoth]

Wow! Excellent! ^^

[robbro7]

Saw tune-yards twice in 2011. Two of the best gigs of my life. I can't believe how well-dressed the band is in this compared to their usual gigwear.

[rodrigoabi1]

wow, this girl's got some pipes. great band also.

[timetoflytothecheese]

Why are people bitching so much about the crowd... it's not like their booing or being rude... they're just listening. Are they supposed to be JUMPING AND DANCING AND SCREAMING?

[dorooni]

@timetoflytothecheese oh yes!

[holmez]

you got something on your face love........

[highwaysandbylines]

@madsketecher never said I didn't enjoy the music. the song kills and these people should be dancing to it, for god's sake

[tonox0]

Mind blowing.

[2wx]

GOOD MUSIC

[mbhnyc]

go merrill! WOO!!

[dorooni]

wow.

[alonetime412]

Truly the most amazingly talented artist to ever see live <3 <3 <3

[cooljayhu]

Remember when music sounded good?

[jigyoda]

@cooljayhu this isn't shitty...

[cooljayhu]

@jigyoda I didn't say it was shitty I said it sucked

[jigyoda]

@cooljayhu i know, but your comment allowed all negative words to be assumed

[bryanbolvito]

How does this group actually makes it to the JKL show ....... :S Somebody Explain...

[mateus2]

@bryanbolvito They are on a big indie label and probably have a good PR assistant?

[adsbegone]

@bryanbolvito Most groups who are on JKL show are critically acclaimed indie artists who got mentioned a lot by indie media.

[Zygiro]

so amazing

[bjornfanfare]

fuck. thats awesome. (i'm stoked on having the same ukelele as her )

[michellelovesMGMT]

OMFG!... SHE'S A WOMAN! I mean... I'm impressed

[tjventure83]

This is a joke right?

[TheCameraHat]

Brilliant.

[baphomick]

She's so amazing.

[fin2limb]

This song is a bit underwhelming without the electric guitar and cymbal hits.

[mateus2]

I still haven't figured out why they haven't recruited a drummer yet. They are on 4AD...

Or maybe Merrill wants to keep things like that?

[MissEdisonChen]

@mateus2 Maybe she wants to keep things like that. I actually think it adds more to the performance...it's very intriguing and amazing to watch her loop different layers; I like to see it as part of the performance and I think they meant to do it like that too

[reislander]

I'm impressed!

[fragatahugo]

her voice is a bit different. not as powerful as it usually is.

[irvykinneas]

@fragatahugo this is EXACTLY like the studio version

[galactyk]

This is talent at its most stripped-down. Just a huge, powerful voice.

[highwaysandbylines]

really pathetic crowd

[MissEdisonChen]

@highwaysandbylines They, like most people at this moment, probably never heard of them and so they're just standing there trying to "understand" the music and get into it....when they did their 2nd song, more people were moving because they got the gist of what type of music to expect

[blues970123]

@highwaysandbylines yeah I agree the crowd is shit. you can tell they just of heard of her that day. ...that song has more groove than whats going on in the mainstream world.

[madsketcher]

@highwaysandbylines seriously, what is the point in saying "really pathetic crowd?" why do you have to go there? can't you just enjoy the music without creative a reason to bitch and complain about something? who cares about the fucking crowd?

[PFloorDave]

Amazing...watch out 2012!

[insertfun]

sounds just as good as the recording. glad they're getting some recognition now.

[penius72]

@insertfun i prefer that a band sounds BETTER live than in recording, not the same..  but it's ok. sorry my bad english.. is not my language.

[SYLBM]

@penius72 you prefer a band that can't manage to capture their best performances on a recording to share with everyone? you want a band who saves the best for a handful of people?

[mistergonsalves]

fabulous performance!
