Trip-hopper FKA twigs, the stage name of British singer Tahliah Barnett, sounds nearly weightless when she sings. Her barely-there voice effortlessly floats over sparse beats, and yet her debut full-length, the appropriately titled LP1 (shortlisted for the prestigious Mercury Prize), is hypnotically engaging. Her vogue-heavy live show promises to follow suit. With Boots. The Showbox. 9 p.m. SOLD OUT. All ages. ACP

When the crowdfunding campaign she launched for her new album received nearly $1.2 million, the world was abuzz about Amanda Palmer. But shortly afterward, the Dresden Dolls vocalist and front woman of The Grand Theft Orchestra came under fire after writing a blog post asking musicians to perform for free at her shows. Out of that praise and criticism came a TED talk and a recently released book, both called The Art of Asking, which Palmer will discuss tonight. Love or hate her methods, you can’t deny she’s getting results. With Ksenia Anske. Town Hall, 1119 Eighth Ave., 652-4255, townhallseattle.org. 7:30 p.m. SOLD OUT. All ages. ACP
