Fiona Apple

In 2012, Fiona Apple was riding high on the critical acclaim of her album "The Idler Wheel..." which had been released just weeks earlier in June. This was a significant moment in her career as it marked her return after a long hiatus following 2005's "Extraordinary Machine." The live recording of "Extraordinary Machine" at the Governor's Ball not only showcases her unique vocal prowess but also highlights her deep emotional connection with the audience. It's fascinating to note that this performance was part of a festival that helped re-establish her presence in the music scene, reigniting her fanbase's passion and introducing her work to new listeners. Watching her live, you can really feel the intensity of her songwriting and artistry, as she channels raw emotions into every note.
