Electropop songstress Aïsha Devi presents herself as highly spiritual — but that's not what's good about her. What's good about her is that she's pop: like Björk without the musical pretensions. This Swiss performer's Tibetan-Nepalese background shows through, in the context of this music, as '60s pyschedelic raga-pop. Her videos are great, and this show will feature live A/V elements from Emile Barret. What can I tell you? I really enjoy this stuff — even if I don't take it as seriously as its creator would like.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: Before the show, stop into brand-new X'ian Town: you could say that New York doesn't need yet another X'ian noodle shop — but you can also say we all can't get enough of them. After the show, excellent cocktails at Hotel Delmano.
