I found this song on Transparent. as soon as I heard it I had to look up what it was. my god the pipes on her. I'm in love with what this song embodies...everything about it. just isn't talent like this anymore ...gotta look deep and find it...I'm glad I found you guys. bravo

Her usual bassist is a Nate Brenner. I don't know if he is the bassist here but it might be him. I love the shit out of this song and tune-yards, she sounds exactly the same live as she does on her album..now that is a true musician! Oh I also think the drummer with the white t-shirt is awesome, he gets so into the song it's great.

@planetahead : the "band" formed around her (and she seems to play with different musicians afai can tell)... she was doing one girl band stuff as a street musician with a loop machine... is my understanding. She booked her OWN tour, and got discovered by the independent labels.

@DJesthp, lol same here. Lil Wayne's rapping style wouldn't work for a bookstore. But there are many other rap artist's music that would work in a bookstore. But then I wouldn't want to listen to the tuneyards while reading my book. Imagine reading and you keep here ahh ahh ahh don't take me life away, dada da dum dum. I would lose it. But this song is so creative! Love it!
