Watch Cat Power Play A New Song In Istanbul
Chan Marshall’s output at Cat Power has mostly consisted of guest spots since the release of her 2012 album Sun, including features with J Mascis, Coldplay, and Willis Earl Beat. She’s been performing all over the world in that time, though, and recently made a stop in Istanbul for a two-night concert event at a venue called Babylon. At one of the shows, Marshall played an untitled new song, which you can watch footage of below.
H/T CHKLTK, who shot this for Radiorgasm. He adds:
She performed two nights in a row here in Istanbul at Babylon, the 22nd and 23rd of November. She said she’s currently pregnant and expecting a boy. She made jokes about how it’d be to perform in kimonos. The song came out of nowhere, she didn’t talk about the details of it.
UPDATE: A commenter points out that the song, reportedly titled “Monster,” has been played live before.
