The Top 10 Groups you’ve probably never heard of: Feist

This Canadian singer/songwriter and member of the indie rock group Broken Social Scene, has the coolest video out right now. In what seems like one shot, Feist (aka Leslie Feist) partakes in an elaborate performance dance piece that is flawless, all to the beat of her amazing song, 1234.
Fiest has been in the music scene since the 1990s, but has pretty much stayed under the radar. A couple of years ago, her song Mushaboom off of her second solo album Let It Die was used in a Lacoste commercial, and remixes of the same song introduced her to new audiences worldwide.

Her latest album, The Reminder” features 1234 and the stellar My Moon My Man (both have been remixed by several producers with interesting results).

Some of the CD's tracks were leaked onto the net early, creating a lot of buzz for the new disc.
Feist seems to be on the verge of breaking out of the indie scene into the mainstream, so now is a good time to jump on board.
