No, you're not dreaming—this really happened. Check out the magic for yourself.
Watching Sleater-Kinney, Courtney Barnett, and Fred Armisen cover Olivia Newton-John’s “Physical” on Saturday night in Oregon was a delightful surprise to conclude a show packed with knockout performances. Curated by Barnett herself, the touring Here & There Festival brought in a wide variety of artists, differing based on the venue location across the country, for an end-of-summer musical extravaganza.
For the closing act, Sleater-Kinney called the other musicians on to the stage for “Physical.” In addition to Sleater-Kinney and Barnett, the Oregon show featured Fred Armisen performing his “Standup for Drummers” act live. The musicians donned classic 80s headbands and employed aerobic-style dance moves in commemoration of Olivia Newton-John’s iconic style.
As musicians and fans everywhere remember Olivia Newton-John’s wide-reaching legacy, The Here & There Festival this summer gave us the precious opportunity to join together in song, honoring Newton-John in perhaps the best way we can: through her music.
