That's St.

Vincent on her new album, Live in London.

Terry Gross spoke to St.

Vincent in 2024 upon the release of her album that was titled All Born Screaming.

Two musicians featured on that album played in bands that influenced her in her formative years, Nirvana and David Bowie.

Dave Grohl, who was Nirvana's drummer and later co-founded Foo Fighters, is featured on drums.

Mark Giuliana, who played on Bowie's album Blackstar, also is featured on drums on some tracks.

Here's a song from St.

Vincent's album All Born Screaming.
