In the week of International Women’s Day, it’s appropriate that the musical wizardry of Merrill Garbus (performing Water Fountain above on Later with Jools Holland] is back in Dublin on her birthday for her biggest Irish headline show. She’s an inspiration and her live show is as uplifting as you can get.

Great, White folk appropriating afrobeat…..
Wait til you hear where we got rock n roll from…..
Damn right. White and black people should be segregated and not allowed to…!…. Wait a minute, this is all sounding a little uncomfortably familiar.
It’s haitian traditional music that influenced this particular record actually as far as I know, but yes how dare she/they/anyone. Anyone for some Hank Williams?
Why it is always annoyingly giddy types who seek out uplifting things.
When they see the alternative is you, it’s easy to understand why.
Saw her a couple of times, great live performance. Well worth checking out
Concur, saw them the last time they played Vicar St and they were excellent.
Portlandia sketch or reality. YOU CHOOSE.
Either way I’m pretty sure that’s Fred Armisen in the latex dress.
