St. Vincent, Spoon, Mereba at Hollywood Bowl

As St. Vincent, Annie Clark has won Grammys and gone toe-to-toe with the greats, working out a futuristic brand of pop and becoming a guitar goddess in the process. On her latest album, Daddys Home, she sets her sights resolutely backwards, to the fuzzy funk and analog soul of the 1970s. Spoon crafts transcendent pop songs with an off-the-cuff ease that makes them feel like rediscovered hits from another eraa steady series of masterpieces, as Rolling Stone says, that makes them one of the most reliably great rock bands of their era.
