Future Nostalgia: Watch St. Vincent Perform "Cheerleader" On Conan

Not wasting any time at all, the lovely and talented St. Vincent kicked off her already packed 2012 with an appearance on Conan last night. She performed "Cheerleader" off of my favorite album of 2011, Strange Mercy, but not before paying a quick homage to that time Elvis Costello famously pissed off Lorne Michaels on SNL back in 1977. Nice hat tip there, Annie.

Check out the performance below, and be sure to see her at Coachella on April 14 and 21 if you were able to grab tickets. She'll also be co-headlining two shows out west with tUnE-yArDs on April 17 at Tucson's Rialto Theatre and April 24 at Oakland's Fox Theater, making us New Yorkers extremely jealous in the process.
