Wisconsin troubadour Anna Vogelzang has been garnering some serious buzz in the singer-songwriter realm with her lyrical poetry and musical conviction.  To (lovingly) kill two birds with one post, check out her performance below for the scintillating Sleepover Shows, and then go on over and check out some of the other great sleepovers put to bed by those Sleepover folks HERE.

This is how the Sleepover Shows folks describe themselves:

“Sleepover Shows are three song sets of acoustic or stripped down versions performed by bands that we love as they make their way through Boston. Though it started as something we did when bands needed a place to crash on the night of their shows, we now mostly film the sessions before or after a show and let the bands find their own ways home (though the offer still stands).

Basically, we try to use our spaces as creatively as we can.  We’ve filmed in the back seats of cars, on top of playground equipment, in doorways and alleys, in bathtubs and stairwells.  We try our best to get the bands to take their music outside of the confines of the studio and have some fun.

And that’s the point: to capture some great music that maybe isn’t always as polished, but shows these artists having a good time doing what they love. We’re doing what we love too, and hope you enjoy the videos!”

To sum up: the Black Cab packs up the Tiny Desk and comes to Boston.

There are gobs of great artists and performances to check out on Sleepover Shows, other examples are below with OK Go covering the Pixies’ Wave of Mutilation (though, as nice as it sounds, we’re not sure that the accompanying kiddie xylophone conveys “mutilation” exactly) and Wye Oak performing their song Civilian.
