8pm- Olive Tiger
Genre: Electronically-Tinged Orchestral Folk
For fans of: Andrew Bird, tUnE-yArDs, Joanna Newsom
Olive Tiger uses cello, violin, guitar, and drums to craft a unique blend of melody-driven orchestral sounds. Aided by a loop pedal, Olive's hauntingly beautiful vocals are backed by seductive rhythms with an electronic tinge. Incorporating influences from folk, jazz, hip-hop, rock, classical, and electronic music, the end result has drawn comparisons to My Brightest Diamond, Tune-Yards, Joanna Newsom, St. Vincent, and Andrew Bird.
“...[Olive] Tiger, whose obsessive vocal layerings and lilting but muscled voice recall Florence Welch, Fiona Apple, Andrew Bird, and Iron & Wine." - New Haven Independent, from “SHEL Brings On Spring,” April 6, 2015

“...In the midst of [Olive’s] vocal gymnastics, she created a cloud of dust around her from the bow’s rosin hitting her cello strings. She was unfazed by the hairs on her bow breaking... Her bandmates, a violinist and a drummer, were engaging performers as well.” - Taryn Renay, from Music Is My Friend Report [blog], November 24, 2015
