Bluesfest: Grimes

Do you know who was hot this year? Grimes! And I don't just mean she picked up a lot of critical raves, though her Visions won plaudits for both its sound and its cover. She also got the dubious pleasure of rocking on the main stage area during one of Bluesfest's hotter and sunnier days. 

It waa not the best day to be wearing a lot of black.

On the other hand, it didn't seem to bother Blood Diamonds any.

A swell performance. I'm glad she didn't pass out from the heat. Right now she's on the Coachella Cruise. In March 2013 she's off to do some Asian touring.
