St. Vincent, a.k.a Annie Clark, is no doubt a wonderful human being. She's also a fantastic singer-songwriter/musician and has already released one of the albums of the year in Actor.
She's currently on a tour of the US with the revered Andrew Bird, too, and is keeping us updated with regular videos - somewhat of a tour diary of her experiences, Episodes 1, 2, 3 and 4 of which are below.
Before that, however, here's a few (OK, a lot) dates she'll be playing in the near future on this side of the Atlantic, something you should be wetting your pants with excitement about.
October:
31 - London, Barbican
November
1 - Dublin, Vicar Street 2 - Glasgow, ABC 4 - Manchester, Cathedral 5 - Leeds, Metropolitan University 6 - Bristol, Anson Rooms 8 - Brussels, Cirque Royal 9 - Amsterdam, Melkweg 10 - Hamburg, Grunspan 11 - Berlin, Postbahnhof 12 - Munich, Theaterfabrik 15 - Friburg, Fri-Son Fribourg 16 - Vienna, WuK 17 - Basel, Volkshaus 19 - Cologne, Kulturkirche 20 - Den Haag, Crossing Border Festival 21 - Paris, La Cigale 22 - Katowice, Club Hipnoza 25 - Copenhagen, Vega

You could do A LOT worse than carry on watching these videos.
