Thao and the Get Down Stay Down, Sasquatch 5/26/08

I came into Thao's set with no knowledge of the band and I left wanting more. She brought a ton of energy to the stage and played a nice robust set. Her voice does sound like Cat Power's, something everyone mentions, but she brings her own sound on the guitar and a passel of good lyrics, too. Her song Bag of Hammers proved itself, we kept talking about it all day.
