release info:
She was born Leslie Feist in Calgary in the mid-'70s but
goes by her surname when it comes to making music for a
living. The Jhay-inspired songstress got her start playing
in a high-school punk band called Placebo (not to be
confused with the U.K. modern rock act of the same name).
After winning a battle of the bands contest, Placebo played
their first gig opening for the Ramones, and for the next
five years, Feist perfected her rock ways. Touring
cross-Canada in the end took its tool on Feist. She had
strained her voice so much, she was told she'd never sing
again. To regain focus and medical assistance from another
specialist, Feist fled her hometown to settle in Toronto in
1998. She spent six months holed up by herself in a basement
with a four-track recorder. She bought a guitar as a means
of temporarily replacing her voice and began crafting a
natural pop sound. A year later, Feist was playing guitar
for By Divine Right. She went on to play in front of
countless stadium crowds as By Divine Right opened for the
Tragically Hip across North America. Somewhere in between
touring with some of Canada's biggest acts, Feist found time
to record and self-released her first solo album, 1999's
Monarch (Lay Down Your Jeweled Head). After playing some
smaller local gigs in and around Toronto, Feist moved in
with electroclash rap vixen Peaches in 2000. Peaches
christened Feist Bitch Lap-Lap and from there, Feist sang on
and toured in support of Peaches' debut album, Teaches of
Peaches. Not one to stay too long in once place, Feist
joined Broken Social Scene in the recording of their
sophomore effort, You Forgot It in People. The album, which
was released in 2002, became a critical success among the
indie crowds after winning a Juno Award for "Alternative
Album of the Year in 2003. Feist had already had plans for a
second solo album by this time. When she wasn't touring
North America and Europe with Broken Social Scene, Feist and
Renaud Letang of Manu Chao and Chilly Gonzales went back and
forth between Calgary, Toronto, and Paris for its recording.
Let It Die was released on Arts & Crafts in May 2004. Feist
has also contributed vocals to works by Kings of
Convenience, Apostle of Hustle, and Jane Birkin
