Tiny Desk Radio
Airs weekly on 88.9 FM, Sunday at 6 pm PST

Picture an office desk in front of some cluttered bookshelves. For the past 17 years, NPR’s hosted some of the world’s greatest musicians behind that desk. From discovery acts from every genre under the sun, to the biggest, most legendary names, it’s become a rite of passage for great artists to perform at the Desk with their unique, intimate performances. Now, Tiny Desk Concerts are on the radio. Think of it like a music discovery engine and a VIP venue for your ears. It’s where you’ll hear Tiny Desk performances from some of the most iconic artists of our time -- from Hozier to Alicia Keys to Billie Eilish. Plus, you’ll hear new-to-you acts like Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso - they might just become your next favorite band. It’s intimate, unexpected, and larger than life — it’s Tiny Desk Radio, only from NPR Music.

  • Backed by a band and choir, Pastor John P. Kee transforms the Tiny Desk into an old, wood-floored country church.
  • Miguel returns to the Tiny Desk to reflect on his journey of self-discovery, featuring a medley of hits mixed in with new songs.
