Yes

I have seen her in concert twice. First time in 2015. History Eraser is one of the finest songs I have heard lyrically speaking.

Her first lp and album were amazing. Garage rock at its best. Her stuff with Kurt Vile and second album are good too.

Here are some shots from the 2015 concert. She was on tour with a cool post punk band from Washington state called Chastity Belt. Saw them both at Club 9:30 in DC. It was one of the funnest nights of my post graduate school life.

She was nominated a Best New Artists Grammy.

I mean, she's indie and all, but one of the bigger new indie artists. I can get she isn't super well known in the mainstream though. But if you even follow indie or emerging rock at all, you likely know her.

At least give her music a try if you're not familiar with it.

I gave it a try. She sounds like every indie rock band from the past decade. I don't get the comparison to Kurt Cobain. She has a good voice, but nothing about that song was interesting or different.
