FKA twigs Ditches The Glitz, Performs A Stripped-Down Take Of "Lights On" Live On KEXP

FKA twigs has long been known for her dazzling stage shows and video clips, but today we're being treated to the sonic side of her seduction as she performs "Lights On" live in session on KEXP. Without Nabil or Kahlil Joseph around to sculpt a hypnotizing visual, some might think that the airy and disjointed r&b stylings of the British sensation might be unpalatable. But truth is, even without the sensory overload, twigs and her whispery falsetto have the makings of bonafide stardom and that's on full display in the clip, which finds her leading two electronic musicians garbed in drum machines and samplers through her heavenly and unconventional balladry. You can watch her perform "Lights On" in-studio for the KEXP crew below, just be sure to cop the album everyone's talking about if you've yet to do so. Grab a copy of FKA twigs' LP1 on iTunes today.
