"Just when you thought the whole ethereal R&B trend would die down, another artist comes along and finds way to push the sexiest of genres into fascinating new directions. Case in point: London-based singer/producer Tahliah Barnett, AKA FKA twigs. After growing up in a small town in the English countryside, Barnett moved to London with the intention of becoming a dancer, but quickly decided to shift her focus to singing. The sexy but slightly creepy take on R&B displayed on her Arca-produced breakout EP, last year’s EP2, calls to mind classic trip hop artists such as Massive Attack as well as contemporaries like Banks and How to Dress Well. Barnett herself is as strangely beautiful and captivating as her music, with her huge lips and eyes, gapped teeth, unusual personal style, and graceful dance moves thanks to all those years of training. If her recent live performance captured by Yours Truly is any indication, this show should be absolutely spellbinding.”
