I had some good karma stored up at the local record store, even though I hadn't been in for months. I fell in love with CocoRosie this past week, and decided I needed some on vinyl. What do I find a few records into the bin? Noah's Ark.
It's been such a sexy, happy Spring weekend!
I love their voices - sometimes childlike, sometimes operatic, sometimes tribal. Sometimes Bianca is like a Native Billie Holiday.
The music is enchanting, haunting, sexy, playful. It comes from somewhere deep, it's genuine.
And Dave didn't mind that I played it over and over, in fact encouraged it. This is good. Check out this clip, it's great. Note the people who get on towards the end.

Coco Rosie are one of my favourites of the last few years. Great to see some video of them. Would love to see them live. Thanks for the post.

Crazy/rustic, kristiana. Sorta fits though.
My Trusted MOGs
That was beautiful! It's too bad it's kinda lo-fi, but genuine they are. I love her getting into the vibe (right after she picks up the harp), swaying and humm/singing....I think I'm going on a CocoRosie hunt :-)))
My Trusted MOGs
I dig the lo-fi. And the seemingly stream of consciousness lyrics. DO it!
Do you suppose Mike was saying that I'M crazy/rustic? lol
My Trusted MOGs
Crazy like a fox! And rustic like a noble woman of letters who chooses to live away from the madding crowd and in harmony with nature...
My Trusted MOGs
sweet!
Mike, somehow in one of my frenzies of parring down my "trusteds" you got swept away in the madness, I hadn't even noticed as I was always reading your posts anyway. Will have to rectify this. Then again, there are some of you whose posts inevitably end up top today, so I don't miss much!
Noble woman hey? hahaha! if you could hear me when I'm drinking!
My Trusted MOGs
Flattery will get you another "Like It," kristiana. Anyhow, as you said, you know where to find me and the rest of us. Down the hatch!
My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs
