saw them tonight in a tiiiiny venue in belleville. woah! coco can saaaang. she did an incredible cover of lauryn hill's "ex-factor". also went on a strange rant early in the show thanking everyone for letting her music spread via word-of-mouth and not through her "getting naked on a wrecking ball".
album is still v. enjoyable.

Not only is Coco such a star but she has great taste in men too.

Was in a coffee shop in Salt Lake City last week, glorious spring day, some kind soul playing the second album on repeat.

I used to play Avalanche a lot in the coffee shop I worked in at the time of its release.

Avalanche is just about a perfect record. I'm ready for more.

So - it looks like Quadron are on hiatus for the time being, but Coco O. put a 2-song EP called Dolceaqua out on Friday.
The arrangements are probably just a little too temperate for my taste but at the same time she's the sort of singer who sounds nice over anything.

She is also on the first track of the last CTM record which is quite good. A bit like a mix of Bark Psychosis and FKA Twigs.

There's an extremely slender new Coco album (9 tracks, 23 mins) and it is effortlessly lush as ever
