Feist stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday to perform “Hiding Out In the Open,” a cut from her new album Multitudes. Watch her appearance on the show below.
Taking over the late night stage with a four-piece backing band, Feist sounded just as good — if not better — than the studio recording of “Hiding Out In the Open,” an acoustic ballad that attempts to navigate the baggage that’s brought into a romantic relationship: “Maybe he’s gonna let me down/ Love is not a thing you try to do/ It wants to be the thing compelling you,” goes some of the track’s standout lines. Although the stage backdrop emulated the seemingly-infinite images of the Multitudes album cover, the one real Feist was the true focus. Check it out below.
Earlier this year, Feist sat down with Kyle Meredith to discuss her new record, as well as the songwriting group she was part of that included Beck, Mac DeMarco, Adam Cohen, and Damien Rice. She also joined the likes of Liz Phair, Fontaines D.C., and Bombay Bicycle Club in honoring Nick Drake on the new tribute album The Endless Coloured Ways – The Songs of Nick Drake.
