Mi and L'au @ the Knitting Factory
Mi and L'au opened last night for Akron/Family. They played a 40
minute set that was very well received. The crowd which sat for most
of their performance was very attentive. I have never been in the
Knitting Factory when it was a quiet as it was last night. Mi and L'au
perform quiet, melancholy folk music. The couple who live in Finland
recently released their first album for Young God Records "These
recordings were made with love in Mi and L'au's cabin in Finland and
then overdubs were made in the wilds of Brooklyn by themselves as well
as the ubiquitous Akron/Family, Julia Kent (Antony and the Johnsons),
Paul Cantelon, Jerome O'Brien and others. Overdubs were made at
Seizure's Palace (Angels of Light. Devendra Banhart, Akron/Family) and
mixed at Trout recording by Bryce Goggin (Phish. Pavement, Lemonheads,
Angels of Light, Akron/Family etc.). "(From the young God website).
That is a pretty impressive list of people that worked on their debut
album Mi and L'au will be on tour with the Akron/Family for the next
two week. I highly suggest that you get out and see them. For tour
date near you check here. They will also be back to New York on March
10th when they will play at Tonic.
