ELEANOR FRIEDBURGER (London Netil House, 29/09/11)



Given poptastic synths are a major part of the charm of the Fiery Furnaces’ frontwoman’s solo album, I wasn’t sure how much I was going to enjoy this stipped-down set in the deepest, darkest depths of East London. But Friedburger’s got a understated, idiosyncratic charm which allows her to carry off the whole “singer with acoustic guitar” schtick, resulting in a thoroughly agreeable performance that held my attention from start to finish.
