String Quartet Live!

Recorded live with string quartet, the new album (appropriately titled "String Quartet Live!") consists of nine songs from both “151a” and “Lighght” (and one Talking Heads cover!), performed live by K and an accompanying string ensemble. Where his first two releases featured an array of percussion and electronic elements, the new live album finds K’s familiar songs reimagined, allowing his soaring vocals to take center stage above a foundation of interweaving strings. The string ensemble gives new life to these tracks, with updated arrangements and the infectious energy that can only come from Kishi Bashi's amazing live performances.

Proving himself to be not only a top-notch performer but also arranger, K Ishibashi presents String Quartet Live!, which offers eight picks from his first two Kishi Bashi albums, as well as a cover of Talking Heads' "This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)."
