It was ladies night at the Highline Ballroom last night, the Chelsea club putting together a bill anchored by relatively longstanding, dreamy keyboard trio Au Revoir Simone, and a launching pad for singer-songwriter Alexa Wilding and the highly promising Class Actress — a project taking its cues from ’80s pop and the sound of its vintage synths, fronted by the memorable presence of Elizabeth Harper’s vocals, signed to Chris Taylor’s Terrible Records. As Kyle Dean Reinford‘s photos show, Au Revoir made it snow — quite literally — and as that lead pic captures, ARS invited Elizabeth and Alexa for an a cappella cover of Kylie’s “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head.” We have some video of that moment, photos of the night via Kyle, and a take-away sample from Class Actress’s excellent debut EP Journal Of Advocacy.
Props on capture to Fluxblog:
And some Class Actress for the weekend:
Class Actress’s Journal Of Advocacy is out 2/9.

It really doesn’t get any better than this. Too bad I was out of town and missed this one. Lovely, lovely, lovely.
Hey, just wanna give you a heads up you put 2009 as the date when its actually 2010. But good stuff I like.
Ahh, bound to happen sometime. Thanks for the head’s up, Gerald.
After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. No doubt the song has well example of it. Really it’s great & lovely song.
Has well example of it?
