The last time The List encountered Cat Power she was by turns stroppy. flirty. funny. sweet. angry and irritating. in the space of a 20- minute interview. This mixed up attitude is reflected in both the music and performances of folk-inflected singer songwriter Chan Marshall (for Cat Power is she). which can range from divinely moving to embarrassingly honest. This show has her appearing solo without her long-suffering live band. so the constraints on what can happen are even less than normal. Whatever. expect a night of beautiful and striking melancholy that will undoubtedly sail close to the rocks of

musical madness. (Doug Johnstone)
