St. Vincent - Actor

St. Vincent returned with her sophomore album 'Actor' in the spring of 2009. The album features the singles "Actor out of Work" and "Marrow". No matter its form, Annie Clark’s guitar work dictates the album’s grand explorations of anxiety and paranoia.

The excited reaction to Actor‘s neatly chaotic orchestral flourishes thus sometimes overshadowed conversations about Clark’s newly harsh, explosive, ceremoniously noisy pop instincts. These louder moments, retrospectively, foretold of Clark’s decade-long growth from a multi-instrumental savant into a true guitar innovator, a musician who, to this day, constantly expands the boundaries of an instrument upon which over a half-century of popular music has already been built.
