With cohort Jona Bechtolt recovering from a recent YACHT trip with LCD Soundsystem, the Blow's Khaela Maricich worked the mic solo-style at New York's Irving Plaza last night, dispensing relationship advice culled from 2006's excellent Paper Television over charming lo-fi beats.

Electrelane-- featuring former Pitchfork scribe Mia Lily Clarke on guitar-- played as well, treating showgoers to selections from this year's lovely No Shouts, No Calls.

Both bands have dates in the coming weeks, with Electrelane opening several shows for Arcade Fire.
