In the world of music, the word “cover” invokes thoughts of bad singing and a fuzzy webcam. Yuna, a folk popper from Malaysia, changed our minds with her smooth,...

When Madame Ur sings, she invokes every part of her body. Her hands slither along, aiding her tales of travel, love, female empowerment, grief, and persecution with every snail-paced curl of the finger. She thrusts her head forward with the weight of her notes. Her lips curl around her teeth in

The movie theater at Union Square was a quarter full with a mix of Japanese young people and other New Yorkers. What drew this group together -- one of many around the world who turned out for the special screening event on November 29th...

Madame Ur's Tijuana Despite glaring differences between Azzul and the Madame, she is in fact equal parts both women. The bifurcation is a direct result not only of Azzul's burning creativity, but of the psychological trail left by Tijuana's history. When Azzul was an 80s child, Tijuana was enjoying

The Show Must Go On Fueled and strengthened by the horrors around them, Madame Ur y Sus Hombres performed at the height of the drug war. The title of their first performance? "The Show Must Go On." "We refused to stop playing," Toto said. "We’re rebellious. We refused in our own way to lay

Paris-based Nigerian singer-songwriter Asa fascinates us with her quiet, mysterious charisma and deep, colorful voice. We reviewed her concert at The Rockwood and took photos for a slideshow, were simply wowed as she cast a spell over the audience with hits like "Be My Man" from her sophomore album

Anna’s songs transport listeners into a mysterious, David-Lynch-like alternate world, and so it made sense that at points during the show, I looked around and saw a room full of turn-of-the-century time travelers who transformed Bowery Ballroom into a dark Parisian cabaret. In her eponymous

We spent an elegant evening with Paris-based Nigerian singer Asa as she shared her jazz-inflected and uplifting songs in an intimate music venue on Manhattan's Lower East Side. She wowed us and the rest of the audience, who sang along with her hits. The concert was one of only two dates the

Though proud to be born-and-raised in Tijuana, Madame Ur y Sus Hombres delightfully transport you to another time and place through dramatic, emotionally raw cabaret pop. We spent lots of time with the band in Tijuana's dive bar Dandy el Sur -- and talked to the fascinating Madame herself in her

The Debutante Hour is a New York delight. The city that invented hipsters somehow also spawned three women who will make any uptight A-hole laugh, cry (but mostly laugh), marvel at their acoustics, and kneel before the glory of their harmonies. Fresh from their debut album release, the cabaret trio

Scotland's Cha Cha Heels swear, talk graphic sex, and have no problem with full-frontal nudity. They're also known in the Scottish music scene for their live theatrics, costume changes and cabaret madness. So it was surprising that their music on its own turns out to be...poignant. Don't get me

By day a modest wife and mother whose biggest vice is drinking tea, by night Azzul Monraz transforms into Madame Ur, a Weimar cabaret goddess born right in the heart of Tijuana. Since 2008, violent, public drug crime in Tijuana has upended tourism there, not to mention everyday life for its

From her debut album Cabaret Cixous, Estonia's lo-fi basement princess Maria Minerva dropped a slightly more revealing MV than usual. With an emphasis on slightly. After releasing a slew of cryptic videos feat. gyrating body parts and GIF colors, her MV for "Ruff Trade" is a refreshing look at,

Yes, it was another crazy week for MTV Iggy's Artist of the Week. New York cabaret gypsy trio The Debutante Hour and Minneapolis deep dark pop band Dearling Physique may have little in common when it comes to genre, but they both have the same rabid fanbase. They were neck and neck the whole...

Aṣa’s show at Rockwood Music Hall sold out. The tiny cabaret’s entrance sprouted two tightly knotted lines, one for ticket holders and one for those hoping to cadge an unclaimed ticket. On one line, two girl friends debated the merits of Nigerian neo-soul artist Nneka while another woman remarked

Mexico City garage punks Le Butcherettes have debuted with Sin Sin Sin, a slab of seductive and surreal rock that more than stands up to the mayhem of their live show. Produced by Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, the recording has an immediacy that makes the listener feel as if they are watching the duo's

I've already gushed about New York's cabaret acoustic act The Debutante Hour, a cross between the Roches, Tiger Lillies, and your deep, dirty subconscious. The trio had me at the word "zombies" on their debut LP The Birth and Death of Meaning, which was a journey through dark, pressing life

Some artists fail miserably when they break solo after a stint with a famous band. But Jónsi Birgisson's break from Icelandic band Sigur Ros has only gotten better and better. We raved about his creepy cabaret-style video for "Go Do," his first single off his debut album Go, which was only made

Who said world music is for coffee shops? The Croatia-born, New Zealand-based sister duo MayaVanya is on the growing list of electronic artists plucking from world sounds, and transforming them into head-bobbing hotness. Latin, African, Caribbean, eastern Euro gypsy, French cabaret, funk, and even
