Feist returns to (further) conquer North America

Modest Mouse's chart victories and Of Montreal's fly endorsement deals notwithstanding, Leslie Feist really has emerged out of nowhere to become the indie world's crossover success darling. And that now ubiquitous iPod Nano ad of hers is just the tip of the iceberg. Feist has become a hip name to drop among bloggers of all stripes, she's dominated the late night TV circuit, and now she's making a triumphant return to North America on her latest tour. Swooning yet?
