Yula Beeri is one of those performers who simply delight and get better every time you see her. Beeri played her last show as part of her January residency at Knitting Factory in Brooklyn on Wednesday. Agent Jay of The Slackers deejayed before the show. During Yula's set she played piano, upright bass, and guitar. There were sing-a-longs, stories, and good times. She opened with a sweet cover of "Feeling Good." Her voice brought a warm feel to the uplifting song. I couldn't help but smile. After setting the mood nicely she played some songs, then let Paul Wallfisch play. Yula came back and there was some backing vocals by Alex and poetry read. She also told a story about a guy and girl, a devil in Barcelona, and how she's happy to be alive. The crowd seemed responsive and singing along. Of course she also played her MySpace and SpacePage and Facebook song. It was a nice evening.
