Annie Clark, known by her stage name St. Vincent, is a singer and multi-instrumentalist from Tulsa, Oklahoma. She began playing guitar at the age of 12 and was influenced by her uncle Tuck Andress of the jazz duo Tuck & Patti. Along with guitar, Clark also plays piano, organ, drums, bass guitar, theremin, and vibraphone.
Throughout her career, she has collaborated and toured with various artists including The Polyphonic Spree, David Byrne, The Black Keys, and Sufjan Stevens. In 2013, Clark received the Smithsonian American Ingenuity Award for her contributions to music.
In 2014, she had the honor of performing with the remaining members of Nirvana at their Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony. Additionally, [m=657709], one of her albums won the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album in 2015.

st vincent is the moniker of singer / multi-instrumentalist / composer annie clark and this is her debut full-length. she's opened for such diverse acts as television, jose gonzalez, and sufjan stevens, and she's an inventive and versatile guitarist who has also performed with avant-garde composer glenn branca. on this record, she writes cinematic pop epics that feel at times like paris in the 20s before all the fun ended. or, conversely, an orchestra of pure modernity - a new american music, informed by jazz, gospel blues, southern folk music, and classical composition but, in the end, an animal original unto itself. she's been compared to everyone from bjork to kate bush to jeff buckley, and her beautiful voice melds perfectly with her intricate guitar work. the music is complex and varied, the lyrics intelligent. the songs are instantly memorable and that is a pretty rare quality.
