ACL 2021: Noga Erez

Sunday at 1:45pm.  This is a rapper from Israel.  I listened to her music (see "End of the Road") and it doesn't do much for me.  Electronica and pop with rap.  Then I stumbled on the video below which was released yesterday.  It's from her next album that comes out in November called "Kids (Against The Machine)".   According to this article, the album "mirrors her highly acclaimed second LP with each track recreated as bold non-electronic big band productions."

Similar to Sturgill Simpson with his bluegrass albums, she has taken her electronic songs and stripped them back.   I like it.  Not sure if she'll play that style the whole show, though.
