Caroline Polachek of the Brooklyn-based electro-pop band Chairlift performing at the Black Cat backstage, September 7, 2009. Chairlift has been touring relentlessly, and they'll actually be back in D.C. to play the 930 Club on September 27. I decided to take the opportunity to see them perform in a smaller, more intimate setting this past Labor Day. They put on an incredible, high-energy show. But the highlight of the night for me was opening act John Maus. His performance was like outsider art, in the best possible sense of the term. He's a philosophy instructor at the University of Hawaii-Manoa when he's not doing this:
Maus also took the stage with Chairlift, playing backup keyboards (less awkward than it sounds), rounding out the band and giving them an even fuller sound.
A couple of songs, via his record label, Upset the Rhythm:
John Maus - Just Wait Til Next year
John Maus - Don't Be A Body
