ELEANOR FRIEDBERGER (London Bush Hall, 03/09/13)











Blasphemy as it may be, but I think I actually prefer Ms. Friedberger's solo material to that of the admirably eccentric, painfully uneven Fiery Furnaces. That unique, half-spoken, half-sung rapid delivery is still there, but the melodies are catchier, the quality more consistent, and with Field Music as her backing band, they also sound excellent live.
