SCOUT NIBLETT - CLWB IFOR BACH, CARDIFF, 28TH SEPTEMBER 2005

Scout Niblett



Scout Niblett is a star. Not literally or even metaphorically in the usual way, but she's a star because she's magical, makes no sense.

Whatever her real name and whyever she changed it, Scout is a girl (rather than a woman, though she's certainly old enough) who sings nonsensical or overtly simplistic non-catchy nursery rhymes in a distinctive though hard to place accent over tightly structured, distinctively sparse drums and guitars - mostly played by herself.

For this gig she was joined by drummer Todd Trainer of Shellac, an amazing band who you can find some pictures of here.
