Caught a couple songs from Rebecca Foon aka Saltland. Cellist with a looping function played a couple of haunting melodies. I hear she did a stint with Thee Silver Mt. Zion crew which is pretty impressive cred.
Moonface aka Spencer Krug, did a solo piano show. Krug was part of the Montreal-based Wolf Parade. Accomplished on piano, Moonface played atmospheric piano ballads that ebbed and swelled. Despite one poor-working piano key (that I could not discern), Moonface songs of love and loss reminded me of David Sylvian crossed with Neil Diamond with lyrics by Lou Reed. Krug currently resides in Helsinki, and the chilly scandic desolation and beauty came across in his songs.
