St. Vincent is the project of the very talented Annie Clark. She was part of the touring band for Sufjan Stevens before creating her own band. Her latest album, Strange Mercy, was released yesterday. This would mark the third entry into her discography. The album has pretty cool experimental stuff on it, but that is probably to be expected since she toured with Sufjan.
Even though I've only had one listen, I made it a point to put "Cheerleader" on my main playlist. It starts off slow, quiet, and intimate and then just has this really heavy chorus. But not in the sense that it's metal or anything, just really powerful. After listening to it below, make sure to search for the live version on YouTube just to see how she performs in a very elegant dress. I'd link it but it's kind of poor audio quality. Also make sure to check out the rest of the album.
