her heavily south london accent aside, ebony bones is arguably the biggest find we made last year, at least as far the london music set goes. she bursts with energy, reminding me of a 1000 versions of my four year old niece and her barney videos (she GOES BUCKWILD AT "i love you..."...but that IS another story entirely). ebony performs and performs, and she is hectic about it. in fact at first glance, first sample, she can overwhelm even the most dedicated of hippies. but once you modulate the kollorful propaganda she seems to so carefully push-sell and you settle her sound into the much kooler form of regard it really is, then you'll see her for what she is: genius.... las number-girl ebony bones gave a killah performance extraordinaire at the annual wicker park summer fest. kolorrrr and hype and all things dope rolled into one performance. but the dooby, dazed americana crowd meandered in and out of mild curiosity and disregard for the better part of her concert. none of that fazed her however, she belted it and belted it some more. check out the vid below and get addicted. speaking of wicker, we doing some nice research on the major cities' summer fests, it was my first time at wicker last year (2007), plenty of photos and videos and etc. btw barack gave one his bestest speeches here...
