.cate le bon

Cate Le Bon is wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! I am a new fan and have become obsessed with her songs. I would describe her music as quirky, weird, and easily sing-able (word?) A few weekends ago I held off purchasing Crab Day because the record store wanted an astronomical $30 for the lp! Instead I got it at the merch table for $20. Honestly I should've bought her earlier albums but my funds were tight that week. In terms of the show, the opening band weren't really my thing and I was anxiously awaiting for Cate. She wore a golden brown shirt, high waist pants (dig her choppy, frayed haircut) with a really cool necklace. With the lighting and the color of her attire she seemed to glow the entire show. Her guitar playing skills were really stellar. I tell you what she is even better live if you can believe it! Some of the songs she put an interesting spin on. Her banter was hysterical in between songs. She managed to break not one but two guitar strings on two different guitars! During the second break she told us all to "turn around" while she fixed the problem. We all laughed. Towards the end she resorted to a third and final guitar. It was amusing. The set was written on a paper plate which my friend P grabbed at the end of the show. I jokingly titled it on Instagram "Plate le Song(s)" which my dorky self thought was witty. Here you go. Definitely check her out. She was immensely enjoyable. I was glad to hear "Wonderful" "Wrong Day" "Are You With Me Now" and "What's Not Mine."
