Annie Clark is no saint. The 38-year-old American art-pop multi-instrumentalist took her stage name not in honour of a canonised paragon but in reference to the death of the dissolute Irish poet Brendan Behan in St Vincent’s Hospital in Dublin in 1964. Her sixth album, Daddy’s Home, conjures up a sleazy New York funk-rock street odyssey, sprawling with the kind of disreputable characters to whom Behan himself, a lover of New York, would have gladly raised a glass.
