Not too shabby, even if she's a little too impressed with her own cuteness at every level. Before Bobby McFerrin managed to come into big hits using this kind of sequencing, I'd seen Urzsula Dudziak doing it live in 1987, and certainly Reggie Watts is making a career of this kind of thing (among some other singers) now.
Thanks...these WNYC and WAMU videos are pretty solid things to have about, no?
Watts's results not always that different from Kimbra's. Watts also the Paul Shaffer-like musician/sidekick on the returning IFC tv series COMEDY BANG BANG.

ReplyDeleteWill look him up.
