We’ve got one last recap from the WOXY.com stage at the Monolith Festival to give you today. As darkness fell on the 2nd night of the festival, we were treated to a performance from Au Revoir Simone. The trio of lovely ladies from Brooklyn have almost as tricky of a setup as White Rabbits did. You see, they all sing and perform from behind a wall of keyboards and assorted samplers. Getting all of those things running in perfect harmony can be difficult, especially when doing a show after recently returning from overseas. One of the small snafus for the band was when Heather realized that she had an outlet for European voltage on one of her machines.

It didn’t take long for things to get sorted out and they played a terrific set. Their live set has gotten even better since I saw them last, which makes sense because they’ve been touring incessantly to support their album The Bird Of Music. In fact, shortly before arriving at Red Rocks, they were invited by Air to open up dates this fall across Europe.

Below you’ll find 2 downloads from their live set at Monolith and also a video interview that Shiv recorded after their set with Erika and Annie.
