I have to admnit that this is the first time I have really listened when I heard about Joanna Newsom. She is a 20-something harpist who dazzles crowds all over the place with her alternative take on interpeting music. Many have described her voice having a "child-like, helium quality and her lyrics taking on "small worlds of their own." Fan club info here:

 If you've been to a concert, I'd love to hear your review.

Here is Kyles Minneapolis Review of the Joanna Newsom show.. 

Joanna was ready for two absolutely packed shows on a brisk friday
night..Unfortunatley I was not able to get into the early show nor did
i attempt to get into the late show.. That was the first time I
couldn't get into a venue since the Black Keys at the Entry... Kyle
from MoreCowbell.net was able to check out the late show and spoke very
highly off the show... He said right away he hadn't seen the venue that
packed since the Queens of Stone Age played there with Grohl.. He also
told me his thoughts going into the show, "not too much to say other
than it was really great, and far exceeded my expectations (which I'll
admit were low and skeptical)". "Her voice is much more in that Bjork
baby girl voice, which can be very annoying sometimes, but it was great
in person." Her harp was at least6 feet tall, and he noticed the crowd
to be very silent. And finally exclaimed "it was really great, i was
shocked how much i loved it. Thank Kyle for the brief words on the show
and visit his Music Blog/#1 twin cities concert calender @ MoreCowbell.net
I'll be at Sean Lennon tonight at First Ave.. Try to win tickets or
find some.... Will make the comparisons to his dad after the show...
TopTen concert List will be put up after the 15th(Imogen Heap show)...
Email your list if you want you list posted at
