Nr. 39 – Cat Power

Chan Marshall, known singer under the name Cat Power, started performing in her home town Atlanta after dropping out of high school. She later moved to New York where her career as an artist started to take off. Suffering from stage fright and alcohol abuse her shows have been known to be a bit uneven and unpolished. But with the release of her album The Greatest, Cat Power seemed to have cleaned up her act. She claims that sobriety and newfound musical collaborators gives her increased confident on stage. I really like the way she sings with that breathy voice and her weird and a bit awkward moves. It might be explained with stage fright but it gives her a unique expression as a performer. That’s cool.
