Xiu Xiu
Xiu Xiu’s performances, led by Jamie Stewart’s one-of-a-kind voice, are intense, virtuosic and painted in a spectrum of acoustic and electronic colors that one would be hard pressed to find equaled on any album. Live, Stewart and Caralee McElroy are joined by Ches Smith on drums and Devin Hoff on bass. Their most recent album, Women As Lovers, marries the ancient with the futuristic, each in all their beauty and terror. Traditional gongs collide with a rat’s nest of computerized layering. Xiu Xiu won “Avant Album of the Year” in the 2007 Plug Awards and have been called “extremely imaginative” by the New York Times. http://www.xiuxiu.org
