Snail Mail at the Regency Ballroom. I think this is the 4th? (gosh 5th maybe?) I’ve seen her. I absolutely loved Lush, but you could tell (in the live show, but even on the record) she was tearing her voice apart to get that sound out…
In the since years, she’s grown, settled. Valentine was a great fucking record, but the live show you could hear she was trying to sing safely.
It feels like this time around, she’s found the balance. It’s got the expression, but she’s not completely hoarse by the end.
