St Vincent announced for Sydney Festival

The inimitable Annie Clarke will be returning to our shores for a run of three shows at Sydney Festival in January 2009.

A touring member of Sufjan Steven's band, Annie performed a one off show with My Brightest Diamond for a lucky Melbourne audience but the rest of the country missed out. Not this time, fingers crossed. She will be performing three shows in at The Famous Spiegeltent for Sydney Festival. No news yet on other side shows just yet but fingers and toes are crossed.

If you haven't picked up a copy of St Vincent's debut album 'Marry Me', now would be a great time to seek it out.
