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.

  • Great Grandpa writes lullabies for the restless. The indie rock band's thoughtful intensity remains intact at the Tiny Desk, just at a quieter volume.
  • An upright piano, a guitar and Daniel Caesar, lifted by a 12-piece choir. The presentation is simple, but the effect is transcendent.
  • GIVĒON treats performance as therapy, pouring out his heart like a bottle of wine. The R&B singer treats us to ballads and anthems of heartache, backed by strings and horns.

    So much of the holiday season is about finding a balance between bright lights and dark nights. Sixpence None the Richer's music finds depth in the in-between.

    Right from the first note, Odeal instantly transports us to the warm, soulful pocket that we never leave.
