Devendra Banhart

Last night Mrs S and I found ourselves in London for a concert together. The concert was Devendra Banhart at The Barbican, supported by his bandmate Rodrigo Amarante. I reviewed the concert itself for Clash, and that review can be found here.

Of late, possibly inspired by the hot weather, I've found myself listening to a bit of Latin music - bossa nova, Latin pop and so on - and so Amarante's set in particular appealed to that current musical interest of mine. Amarante appears to be preparing an album for release, so while I wait for that, here's one of the tracks that he played in his too-brief set. (If you're reading this on email, click here to hear the track.)
