Sian Alice Group’s live set has been very well received and sees the band expanding their line-up to six people in order to fully flesh out their sound. The New York Observer said this about their performance at CMJ last year: “Sian Alice Group make big, cinematic rock that’s at turns effortlessly gorgeous and blindly assaultive. The six piece trudged through densely-rhythmic instrumental passages, free jazz freak-outs, and synth-laden ballads. Sian’s woozy soprano managed to knock the audience back on their heels in a mesmerized stupor.”
