Concerts

Barry Douglas: Tiny Desk Concert

Watch the award-winning Irish pianist play his own arrangements of traditional songs from the homeland, including a haunting rendition of "My Lagan Love."

Andrew Bird: Tiny Desk Concert

For this performance of three new songs, Bird comes with a stripped-down acoustic band: just drums, upright bass and acoustic guitar, with Bird himself on violin.

Carrie Rodriguez: Tiny Desk Concert

On her new album Lola, Rodriguez's bi-cultural life blossoms into a spectacular collection of stories and songs, several of which she performs in this Tiny Desk concert with guitarist Luke Jacobs.

Robert Ellis: Tiny Desk Concert

Robert Ellis somehow finds wide-eyed wonder in heartbreak. He and guitarist Kelly Doyle play stripped-down yet thoughtfully busy arrangements from his ambitious country record.

Leroy Jones' New Orleans Strut

At the Dew Drop Jazz Hall across the lake from the city, music has been performed for more than a century. One of New Orleans' great trumpeters leads his sextet in concert.

Andy Shauf: Tiny Desk Concert

The Saskatchewan singer-songwriter visits the NPR Music offices to perform three quietly affecting songs, two of them from his new album The Party.
