Robyn snatches weaves at MoMA concert in Ny
Robyn performs during the 2016 Museum of Modern Art Party in the garden at The Museum of Modern Art on June 1, 2016 in New York City.
Quote:
The Swedish pop star, you see, had not crafted her set list for the casual fans one might expect at an affair drawing everyone from young galleristas to a 100-year-old Rockefeller. There would be no "Dancing on My Own" or "Hang With Me,"
Wearing her customary cropped blond hair and a flowy, glittery pantsuit by Michael Halpern, Robyn opened with a song by another musician, Kindness' "Who Do You Love," for which she contributed guest vocals in 2014. Her voice submerged in a wash of effects. The song merged easily into a faster new one, "Right Time."
Working the crowd not with banter (she said next to nothing during the almost 40-minute performance) but with outré dancing and a tough-girl gaze, Robyn then stepped down onto the lip of the stage for "Love Is Free," a fiery duet with New York "tropical punk" singer Maluca. Her next, unnamed guest didn't sing, showing up only for a brief dance-off in a barely there skirt before slipping back behind the stage's mirrored partitions. A couple of songs later, Robyn was joined by Zhala, the Kurdish-Swedish singer she signed to her Konichiwa Records label.
