I've liked Santigold's music since she released "L.E.S. Artistes" under the moniker Santogold. She had a prime afternoon slot on the main stage of Field Trip this past Saturday. Her fun-filled set included all the big hits, dancers and interesting visuals.

Check out some tunes:

"L.E.S. Artistes"

"Chasing Shadows"

"Disparate Youth"

"Can't Get Enough Of Myself"
