Show Review
Banging the can for musical adventures of a more archaic nature, this performance from Baltimore's Yeasayer is one of the more unique shows you'll find in our ever growing catalogue. With centerpieces like "Wait for the Summer" and "2080" plump full of a variety of ancient treasures and trinkets - percussive mantras, ritualistic chanting, and enraptured hand clapping/foot stomping - Yeasayer spin the globe more than a few times throughout the course of this performance, excavating diverse musical relics and ricocheting rhythms from a variety of cultural/historical backgrounds. At any given moment, Yeasayer's powerful pedigree pulls from African, Asian, Caribbean, Mexican, and South American origins to achieve an astounding sense of other worldliness few of their peers can match. - David Pitz
