Fiona Apple

In September 2011, Fiona Apple graced Largo's stage for a mesmerizing rendition of "Jolene," originally penned by Dolly Parton. This live performance came after a period of relative quiet following her critically acclaimed album, "Extraordinary Machine," released in 2005. Interestingly, by 2011, Fiona had also been working on her long-awaited album, "The Idler Wheel...", which would debut the following year. During this time, she faced not only the pressures of a demanding creative process but also personal trials that informed her music. Fans eagerly anticipated her return, and this performance highlighted her raw, emotional delivery—a signature trait that keeps audiences entranced. The collaboration with Sara and Sean Watkins, alongside Sebastian Steinberg, added a rich layer to the experience, showcasing Fiona's versatility and the deep connections formed through live music.
