Watch St. Vincent Cover Portishead’s “Glory Box” With The Roots

Sometimes, cool things just happen for no particular reason. Just go with it. St. Vincent, for instance, is in between promo cycles; Daddy’s Home, her last album, came out two years ago. Every once in a while, though, Annie Clark will pop up on late-night TV with a sick-ass cover song. Last year, she did Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” with the Colbert house band. And last night, she did Portishead’s “Glory Box” with the Roots and a huge string section.
