Indie radical Merrill Garbus, AKA tUnE-yArDs, first began creating her homemade tracks back in 2006 using a voice recorder and looping devices to construct songs featuring a signature formula of ukulele, percussion and a booming, soulful voice. Her self-released LP BiRd-BrAiNs, recorded while Garbus lived in Montréal, struck a chord with fans and bloggers alike and 4AD picked up on tUnE-yArDs' raw and honest music. Following this debut, Garbus moved to the Bay Area and teamed up with bassist Nate Brenner, projecting her mixture of global folk rhythms, indie pop sensibilities and heartfelt politics in a widescreen yet concise voice.
