St. Vincent delivered one of the rare high points at Crypto.com Arena for the home team LA Sparks on Thursday night (August 15) with his fiery performance of the National Anthem. The shape-shifting indie rocker hit all the difficult high notes of the notoriously difficult “Star-Spangled Banner,” and even though she had her trusty electric guitar on a stand, the “Broken Man” singer went. a hat as she stood on the arena floor in a brown leather jacket, short black skirt and black high heels.
That warm-up, however, wasn't enough to propel the Sparks to victory as the moribund 6-19 franchise suffered its most lopsided loss of the season during an unexpected 103-68 loss to league-leading New York Liberty. In a pre-match warm-up clip posted on St. Vincent Reddit, the singer born Annie Clark showed off her impressive dribbling skills in a green room backstage, deftly bouncing the ball between her legs while still dressed to go out, not go. hard on paint.
“Oh weird, I didn't see you there, I'll be singing the national anthem at the Liberty/Sparks game on August 15th,” she said while impressively keeping the ball spinning on her finger. The clip ended with Vincent throwing the ball out of frame and saying “one more!” before jumping up and almost hitting her.
St. Vincent is currently in the middle of his All Born Screaming tour, which is set to hit the Hellenic Theater in Los Angeles on Friday (August 16) with support from Eartheater and Maiah Manser.
