Au

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Au (pronounced "Ay You") was on KEXP today doing a live show.I had to immediately look them up, they had such an interesting experimental sound! There is crazy collaborative of banjos, handclaps, classical piano (by creator Luke Wyland), xylophones, drums, female vocals, tambourines, woo-ing, coo-coo-ing and more cowbell. is that birds singing?, a circus? tuba? It's explosive!photo by Pat Kehoe
