Electro-soul diva rocks the Fader Fort

Santogold wowed SXSW this afternoon (March 15) as the festival entered its final leg.

The hotly tipped electro-soul diva rocked an early evening performance at the Fader Fort at 6pm.

After opening with 'You'll Find A Way', she went straight into the obvious highlight, buzz track 'LES Artistes'.

She was flanked by two backing singers, and in the spirit of audience interaction, invited the crowd to name them before closing track 'Creator'.

“I need to think of a name for these girls. Would you guys message me on the MySpace with some suggestions for what they should be called?”
