Episode Details

St. Vincent electrified audiences with a jaw-dropping performance at Ravinia, teaming up with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in a tour that’s redefining her sound — blending orchestral grandeur with her signature rock edge. From Detroit to Atlanta, she’s been sharing this bold, deeply personal musical evolution, sparked by her BBC Proms debut and now captured in a live album. With conductor Jules Buckley and keyboardist Rachel Eckroth, she reimagined over a dozen tracks, revealing haunting new dimensions — like the noir intensity of “Violent Times” or the tender ache of “The Bed.” Her stage magic peaked when she walked into the crowd to sing a Sufjan Stevens tune, accepting a fan’s friendship bracelet as a symbol of her ever-evolving artistry. When she traded guitar for voice and then brought it back — especially on “Smoking Section” — the result was transcendent, proving she’s found a new, soaring dimension in her music.
