Nellie McKay showed up for a solo performance at Fingerprints Record Store in Long Beach last night. First of all Fingerprints is awesome and have fantastic, intimate in-stores. A few other artists who have recently graced Long Beach: Fionn Regan, Josh Ritter, Damien Rice, Matt Costa, Pinback, the Aggrolites...you get the idea, Amoeba what?
So Nellie started off with songs from her new album Obligatory Villagers. She is a great pianist, but she also busted out some ukulele action. Check out the song Mother of Pearl for a sample of her hilarious musical stylings. If you like YouTube check it out, this one too, and this one.
