The second season of Q2 Music's LPR Live podcast launches with a performance from composer and Arcade Fire violinist Sarah Neufeld. Her albumThe Ridgemelds elements of classical, folk and pop and at times even simulates the sounds of electronic looping, but in an all-acoustic setup.

We caught up with her on the last show of her tour promotingThe Ridgeto discuss the influence of yoga on her music and the importance of daily discipline. Then we join the audience at Le Poisson Rouge for a performance of the title track with Colin Stetson on the electronic wind instrument the Lyricon and drummer (and fellow Belle Orchestre member) Stefan Schneider.

The Ridgeis Neufeld's second album, following her debutHero Brother. In addition to performing solo and with Arcade Fire, she is a founding member ofMontréal's Bell Orchestre and of a new duowith her husband, the saxophonist Colin Stetson.

This performance was recorded April 15, 2016 at Le Poisson Rouge.
