Was the opening set of the festival and one of my favorites of the weekend. Simply put, wow.

i had no idea who she was, and as walked by the gobi i just heard this chick just wailing, and proceeded to have her voice blow my mind. Great surprise!
Facebook song was hysterical.........IGNORE!
Got there early to start the festival off and see her and P.O.S. Fantastic way to start it off, she was on point and had a great presence! Her husband Keir was great too!
Jeff Goldblum for main stage 2012.
2011 Perfectchella.
great start to the festival. i loved when she would go into that crazy falsetto.
I wanted to see her quite badly. Love that song "Politics in Space" - but the line madness at the entrance and the stupid event staff telling us to stand in the wrong lines meant too much waiting and not enough getting in to see an early act I really wanted to see.
Coachella is a place beyond conventional geography, a time not measured in hours or minutes, an experience, a state of mind, an attitude, and a holy form of expression. The Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival is an annual festival put on by Goldenvoice in Indio, CA. Please don't confuse the two.
She def did an amazing job. For someone who has never heard of her I was absolutely impressed.
Missed her at Coachella, but she shredded my eardrums at Ben Folds last night.
Fantastic singer with a great personality, funny songs, and wicked cute. Not to be missed!
She was AMAZING and thats not falsetto, she is a trained opera singer. Couple of songs I was hoping for that weren't done but that did not detract from how AWESOME she was. I didn't realize her outward appearance was as beautiful as her voice!
"The Coachella Valley wasn't always like this, there's been a great many changes made since I came here some 67 years ago"
Change that fucking avatar Spinecraft. I HATE that fucking picture.
Yeah, I missed her at Coachella but caught her opening for Ben Folds. She's amazing live, at least with the minimalist set up of just her and her husband on guitar. Her recordings don't really do justice to how she sounds live, because it sounds like electropop junk recorded, but live she has a simple and amazing presence. Great stuff.
