The slow build that takes place in just three short songs performed at the NPR Music offices -- from a guitar instrumental to the final primal cry of "Jezebel" -- is nothing short of astonishing. Calvi plays three songs from her self-titled debut in this powerful performance at the NPR Music offices.

Set List:
"River To The Sea"
"Surrender"
"Jezebel"

  • Best female guitarist I've seen in a little while. Blues meets flamenco... meets gypsy jazz... meets an accordion? Too much going on!

  • This maybe the sexiest thing I've ever seen.

  • @MickeyMacaroney

    because she is such a tiny person... I´ve seen her live.. everything around her looks vast

  • this woman is quick with her hands

  • Is it wrong for me to think that this music reminds me a bit of The Doors? Anyways, deff loved that solo guitar intro.

  • 5:02

  • why do her fingers look so tiny?

  • It irritates me how female musicians like Lana Del Rey are seen as talented and become famous because of it when the real talen like this is just pushed aside.

  • Play guitar...but good lord stop singing. yikes!
