List of video concerts from NPR
Text logo Tiny Desk Concerts is a video series of live concerts hosted by NPR Music at the desk of former All Songs Considered host Bob Boilen in Washington, D.C.
The first Tiny Desk Concert came about in 2008 after Boilen and NPR Music editor Stephen Thompson left South by Southwest frustrated that they couldn't hear the music over the crowd noise.[ 1] [ 2] Thompson joked that the musician, folk singer Laura Gibson, should just perform at Boilen's desk. A month later Boilen arranged for her to do just that, making an impromptu recording and posting it online.[ 3] The name is taken from Boilen's 1970s psychedelic dance band called Tiny Desk Unit.[ 4]
The series has previously drawn criticism for narrowness in the musical genres it includes—described as focused on "hipster-infused indie rock" by Zachary Crockett at Vox [ 3] —to the exclusion of genres like country and hip-hop.[ 5] However, the series' musical focus has broadened in scope over time.[ 3] [ 6]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, NPR Music enlisted artists to instead record their own virtual performances under the re-branded title Tiny Desk (Home) Concerts .[ 7] The 2022 Tiny Desk Concert winner, Alisa Amador, was the first performance back at the desk with an audience since the pandemic started.[ 8]
As of October 2021[update] , the series included more than 800 concerts viewed a collective 2 billion times on YouTube.[ 3] [failed verification ]
South Korea–based TV agency Something Special worked alongside both NPR and LG U+ to launch Tiny Desk Korea , which served as the first time Tiny Desk Concerts was adapted as a TV show outside North America, with up to 52 episodes aired weekly. The TV show was premiered on LG U+ platforms in August 2023.[ 9] In March 2024, a similar licensing agreement was struck with NHK to launch Tiny Desk Concerts Japan with Fujii Kaze as the first performer in the series.[ 10] The show premiered on NHK General TV in Japan on March 16, 2024; with its global sister channel NHK World-Japan subsequently premiered on March 29, 2024.[ 11] [ 12]
Tiny Desk Contest In December 2014, NPR announced it would host its first contest, inviting musicians to submit a video of one of their songs.[ 13] A jury of musicians and NPR staff choose a winner to play a Tiny Desk Concert . The contest has continued annually, each year drawing more than 6000 submissions.[ 13] [ 14] [ 15] Jurors have included Trey Anastasio of Phish,[ 15] Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys, and Jess Wolfe of Lucius.[ 16]
