Alex Chilton/Yo La Tengo Perform Femme Fatale Live at Maxwell's
On December 7, 2007, Yo La Tengo performed a memorable live rendition of 'Femme Fatale' at Maxwell's in Hoboken as part of their annual Hanukkah shows. This performance came just a year after their acclaimed album 'I Am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your Ass,' which showcased their signature blend of indie rock and experimental sounds. During this period, the band was enjoying growing recognition, especially within the indie music community, thanks to their eclectic style and engaging live performances. An interesting tidbit is that these Hanukkah shows have become a beloved tradition, with Yo La Tengo not only showcasing their music but also raising money for local charities, emphasizing their commitment to community and the arts. This live version of 'Femme Fatale,' with its raw energy, perfectly captures the band's dynamic presence and their ability to connect with audiences.
