Merrill Garbus of tUnE-yArDs premiered a brand-new, eight-minute track at the POP Montreal festival last week, reports Stereogum. Garbus is known for her rhythmic looping and ukulele skills, and this new track is no exception: She kicks off the performance with solo vocals that are ultimately looped and layered with the rest of the band’s singing. Percussion enters, with a brass accompaniment and sporadic uke playing that further builds the piece. A solo climax around the 4:50 mark adds dynamic and appeal to the lengthy song. tUnE-yArDs performs with Pat Jordache and Les Blondettes at 8 p.m. Sunday, October 9th, at Union Transfer; tickets to the all-ages show are $15. —Caitlyn Grabenstein
