Future Islands / Big Freedia / L7 / Lauryn Hill / Off! @ FFF Fest 11/8/2015
We expected the worst, and received the best. Ms. Hill arrived on time, began her set as scheduled, and played music without the crazy socio-political commentary. She looked extra comfortable sitting on a couch with the Austin skyline as her backdrop, playing the guitar and passionately motioning to her band to keep up with her energy. The horns, rhythm section, and back-up singers sounded like a hip hop symphony as they played complement to Lauryn's lyrics and soulful voice. The highlight of the night, at least to me, was "The Mystery of Iniquity", which is the track sampled by Kanye West on "All Falls Down". Simply magical! - [Houston Free Press]
After a rainy Saturday, Austin's Fun Fun Fun Fest saw the sunshine on its final day which featured sets from Lauryn Hill (a last-minute sub for D'Angelo), Future Islands, L7, Venom, Off!, Dag Nasty, Big Freedia, Doomtree, Power Trip and lots more.
