The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music’s Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It’s the same spirit â stripped-down sets, an intimate setting â just a different space. Anamaria Sayre | April 20, 2021 C. Tangana’s extended family basking in the warmth of sobremesa with easy smiles and effortless baile looks otherworldly after more than 13 months amid a global pandemic. But considering the Spanish rapper’s past year back home in Madrid, the simplicity feels fiercely authentic. (Check his mama and tĂa vibing in the corner.) This first live performance of his latest album, El Madrileño (including a global premiere of a fresh single, “Me Maten”) buzzes with communal energy, spotlighting talent from across Latin landscapes. From Mexican Regional to Spanish flamenco, C. Tangana is simultaneously coming home and reaching out to bridge Latin music boundaries. He’s building a community of cross-cultural collaboration, rooted in a unifying love of language and tradition, making it clear he’s intent on giving everyone a seat at the table. The entirety of the show, from impromptu harmony to string octet, hums along with a distinctly Spanish cadence, paying homage to the flamenco-infused streets the global superstar came up in. The concert’s star-studded cast of Spanish collaborators, including long-time friends (producers Alizzz and Victor MartĂnez) and new contributors (rumba legend Kiko Veneno and flamenco-pop icon La HĂșngara), are each spotlighted for their contributions to the record. All these parts compound

The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music’s Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It’s the same spirit â stripped-down sets, an intimate setting â just a different space. Anamaria Sayre | May 27, 2021 Colombian reggaetonera Karol G floats between styles on this wistful Miami set with the breeziness of a pop star who knows no boundaries â or maybe it’s the calculus of an artist who has built a career on subverting them. Her personal, unapologetic flourish has allowed her to top the Billboard charts of a genre with limited female participation, and even less superstardom. Her signature bichota energy is subtle, yet pervasive in her stripped-down Tiny Desk (home) concert. Flanked by an illuminated all-women band, Karol G’s authentic command of the intimate moment and its intended audience is unmistakable. She’s stepping down from atop the glossy sets and sparkly stages to share secrets â lessons learned during her sudden ascent about humility, grace and empowerment â with the millions of niñitas who will watch this concert, enraptured by her effortless confidence and smooth Spanish bars. Without a doubt, Karol G strikes a perfect balance here of vulnerability and star power, taking us on a journey through her many iterations. She deftly moves from a ballad-like rendition of urbano mash-up “CrĂ©eme/A Ella” to a soulful performance of trap corrido “200 COPAS” (her proclaimed favorite song at the moment) with Mexican Regional cariño Danny

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Reanna Cruz | September 16, 2021 A tattooed hand scrawls on a small school desk â “Jose by J Balvin” â followed by a signature smile. It’s an intimate beginning for the prĂncipe del reggaetĂłn, J Balvin himself, as he begins his “El Tiny” performance on a sunny barge in the middle of the East River. Backed by the Brooklyn Bridge, Balvin breezes through some of the best cuts off of his new album JOSE (Balvin’s birth name). The first three â “Vestido,” “Que Locura” and “OTRO FILI” â are moody and gentle popetĂłn, creating expectations of familiar intimacy before he blows the performance wide open with the Tainy-produced, tempo-shifting album opener, “F40.” And as the sun descends on the New York skyline, Balvin closes it out with a drop-laden extended mix of the jock-jam Skrillex collaboration, “In Da Getto.” To talk about modern Latin music is to talk about J Balvin. Over the course of the past 10 years, “the boy from MedellĂn” has risen from humble beginnings in Colombia to global superstardom, building an unprecedented fanbase at the intersection of pop, reggaetĂłn, house and hip-hop, with over 18 billion views and 35 million record sales to prove it. He is the first Latino to headline Coachella and Lollapalooza, and there isn’t

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Reanna Cruz | September 17, 2021 Six hands, holding pencils as drumsticks, tap out a simple percussive beat on a Wurlitzer and two desks. Zooming out, the camera reveals the members of Diamante ElĂ©ctrico, accompanied by a colorful 10-piece backing ensemble in their home country’s capital, BogotĂĄ. Diamante ElĂ©ctrico’s brand of Colombian indie rock can be described in three words: funky, inventive and necessary. The Latin Grammy-winning band’s music emphasizes community and place â two things that are displayed front and center as the band takes the stage in the second “El Tiny” performance of Hispanic Heritage Month. “NO MIEDO!!!” (no fear) and “VERDAD” (truth) adorn the worn-down desks as the collective powers through a politically-charged four-song set. Opening with 2018’s “Rotos,” they breathe champeta life into their songs through horns and instruments like the guacharaca, played by singer Juan Galeano’s brother Mario. They follow with “SuĂ©ltame BogotĂĄ,” an upbeat plea to escape a suffocating home, and feature a spirited guest performance by Nicolai Fella of LosPetitFellas. “Amalia” leads into a genuine expression of thanks and solidarity, as Galeano gives gratitude to those protesting on “primeras lĂnea y segunda lĂnea,” shouting out the students and farmers challenging the government before finishing the set with “A Veces.” It’s why Diamante ElĂ©ctrico has made themselves

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Anamaria Sayre | September 22, 2021 maye’s sultry vocals and ethereal energy conjure a world in which areperias shrouded in hazy bubbles and twinkly lights feels astonishingly normal. The enchanting pop singer fills her “El Tiny” home stage â the artist’s favorite Venezuelan eatery in Miami â with family and friends, su propia gente. She opens with a short and simple rendition of the soon-to-be-released “Maybe Baby” before dropping her instrument and transitioning to an up-tempo, vocal-driven performance of “Yours.” Picking the electric guitar back up, she strums along with a steady percussion and accompanying guitars for a soulful premiere of brand-new track “Descifrar,” emanating an understated and consistent confidence fitting for a pop reina on the rise. She closes out the set with a full-bodied execution of “TĂș,” showcasing her signature tropicalia-meets-dream pop sound. maye’s effortless sashay from English to Spanish in her songs and speech represent an important facet of the El Tiny audience. Featuring a whole crew of Venezuelan-Americans, including her famous Latin singer-songwriter papĂĄ, Fernando Osorio on the traditional Venezuelan cuatro, the third performance in our Hispanic Heritage Month series authentically represents the experience of a family like maye’s â one that exists in both planes, two worlds. Given a moment and a platform like this, maye seizes the

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Anamaria Sayre | September 27, 2021 Silvana Estrada’s angelic first note strikes, and for a moment her family’s instrument workshop in Veracruz, Mexico, feels like a window to the heavens themselves. Adorned in a white dress and a radiant smile, the singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist invites us to participate in a rich and varied expression of familial love and musical brilliance. She wastes no time entrancing her audience, using a stripped-down performance of “Un DĂa Cualquiera” â accompanied by nothing but soft claps and subtle harmonies â to showcase her impeccable vocal precision and range. After a sweet “Bienvenidos,” Estrada picks up the Venezuelan cuatro â her most beloved magic-making tool â and jumps into a sublimely arranged, effortlessly enchanting rendition of “Tristeza.” Then, halfway through “Te Guardo,” something extraordinary happens: the sound of stringed instruments comes out of nowhere, and as Estrada steps away from her microphone, the camera follows, exposing a string quartet set up just off screen. After that moving reveal, Estrada takes a seat and begins to perform “Marchita,” where strings, cuatro, and voice marry in indiscernible harmony. Shifting scenes once again, Estrada moves outside and we meet her papa, armed with a double bass. Father and daughter conjure a musical manifestation of pure love with a stunning performance of

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Felix Contreras | September 29, 2021 As you gaze into the space where Cuban vocalist Eme Alfonso performs her Tiny Desk (home) concert, you enter a place where music becomes a spiritual language. So much of her history and music is centered around the Afro-Cuban spiritual practice that some know as santerĂa. In the 1980s, her parents started SĂntesis, a pioneering band that performed secular versions of that musical liturgy through electric jazz fusion. In fact, her parents, Carlos Alfonso and Ele ValdĂ©s, join her on vocals on this three-song set, which she recorded in Havana. As with all things spiritual, it’s best to start off paying homage to all things greater, which she does with a track from her 2018 album Voy, “Ayabba,” a prayer sung in Yoruba and interpreted for voice and jazz trio (in this case, bassist Julio CĂ©sar GonzĂĄlez, pianist Jorge AragĂłn and drummer Oliver ValdĂ©s). “Libre” showcases the historic musical ties between the US and Cuba, as Alfonso’s vocals reflect her love for soul and jazz. Jazz is also part of that long-standing cultural give and take, as evidenced by AragĂłn’s masterful piano solo. “El Bote” features the preternatural family vocal connection between Alfonso and her parents. In an interview I did with her dad Carlos Alfonso, he

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Stefanie FernĂĄndez | October 4, 2021 The first florid trills of piano wash in, and Sech is here to celebrate reggaetĂłn in its home. The scene: the light-soaked Biblioteca de la Autoridad del Canal de PanamĂĄ Roberto F. Chiari. Sech arrives with a book he places on the table. His blazer bears his name, the isthmus of Panama and its flag, and the likeness of Panamanian Yankee great Mariano Rivera and his jersey number, 42 (the namesake of Sech’s most recent album). He approaches the mic for a silky version of “Playa” that, like the rest of his Tiny Desk set, is nearly entirely acoustic. Sech’s discography is itself a place of learning for the Latin pop industry he has reinvigorated. The history of reggaetĂłn often dwells disproportionately on Puerto Rico in the 1990s, overshadowing its creation by Black Panamanians in the 1980s with plena and reggae en español, born from Jamaican reggae and dancehall and iterated in RĂo Abajo, Sech’s hometown in Panama City. “Otro Trago” introduced Sech’s honeyed, melodic vocal range as a promising young player in an industry enamored with its own reductive powers. In Sech’s hands, reggaetĂłn is given the care of a people’s history. Music fills every corner of the library, from the violin-DJ-bass trio nested in the second-floor balcony, to the

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Anamaria Sayre | October 6, 2021 After years spent working the global stage, Prince Royce returns home to claim his rightful throne in this Tiny Desk (home) concert. Performing his entire “El Tiny” set live from an unassuming barbershop chair in The Bronx, the Dominican-American superstar dazzles in this homecoming performance with the unguarded swagger characteristic of a true rey de la gente. Prince Royce instantly grips ears and hearts with a stunning performance of “CorazĂłn Sin Cara.” Leading with buttery vocals and easy electric guitar riffs, he serves smooth verses with the kind of suave appeal that would leave any viewer wanting to be a bachata princess. Transitioning between tracks with a sweet note about representing la cultura, he dives straight in with more traditional bachata beats in a performance of his recent release “Carita de Inocente.” The barbershop is where the prince discovered the building blocks to create an empire in the image of a people and culture that feel like home. In an intimate moment between songs, Prince Royce shares that it was where he would go to hear what people were listening to in the streets â bachata, merengue, mambo. His New York Dominican sound feels natural in the space. “Porque me recuerda a mis inicios (because it reminds me of

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Stefanie HernĂĄndez | October 8, 2021 For a moment, it looks like YEĐDRY is rising from the sea. She’s barefoot and wearing yellow, like the roses on her side table tiny desk, OshĂșn’s color. On the floor, below the seaside view, is a box of records displaying Celia & Johnny, the 1974 classic collaboration between Celia Cruz and Johnny Pacheco. To her right sits the 1979 album Cross Over by the Fania All Stars, of which Celia and Johnny were both starring members. From Soho Beach House in Miami, YEĐDRY performs five songs, which make up most of her solo discography. She opens with a song that’s just as intimate as her space. “Nena” is a prayer sung from the perspective of her mother when she went to Italy in search of opportunity, while a young Yendry Fiorentino stayed with her grandmother in her hometown of Santo Domingo. After she turned 4, she joined her mother in Turin, where she grew up and started her music career. YEĐDRY’s songs radiate with a feminine strength of many lives lived, from the sobered reflection on a past relationship of “Se AcabĂł” to the self-sure “Ya,” a song “about the fire … and the courage that all of us have inside. And sometimes we struggle to get it out.”

The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music’s Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It’s the same spirit â stripped-down sets, an intimate setting â just a different space. Sofie Hernandez-Simeonidis | December 7, 2021 Stepping into a DMV when you’re about to take your first driver’s test, while nerve wracking, is something of a milestone. And Olivia Rodrigo has been hitting milestones with frequency this year: her first album SOUR debuted at the top of the charts in May after the success of three previously released singles, most notably the viral “drivers license” (hence the DMV locale and its “interesting vibes.”) Her pop stardom may seem sudden, but Rodrigo has been entranced by music and songwriting for the majority of her 18 years, as if she’s been observing the right moves from the backseat of the car until it was time for her to get behind the wheel. Rodrigo and her band take on the Tiny Desk mentality as they experiment with arrangements throughout this performance, embracing new sounds for her songs. The set begins with an acoustic version of the pop-punk-ish single “good 4 u,” and a similar setup continues with the addition of an echoey, electric guitar in “traitor.” “drivers license” features only Rodrigo and her keyboard, a shift from the recorded version well-known for Dan Nigro’s production and the ever-present beeping of a car door sensor. “deja vu” starts softly with just

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Reanna Cruz | October 13, 2021 Sitting next to rapper Nicki Nicole, on a stack of books, you’ll see an old Sony camcorder â throughout this six-song performance we cut back to its footage every now and again, the rough texture breaking from the pristine, offering a nostalgic sense of intimacy. It’s a production choice that completely works and, in a way, reflects Nicki Nicole at large, as an artist born in 2000 and with a connection to sounds and styles beyond her years. At multiple points throughout the performance, Nicki points and beckons to the audience, inviting them into her world, her lyrics, her sound. Every track carries a certain brand of swagger whether it be the intensity of her second song “Mala Vida” or her effortless, confident freestyle. Even when she slows it down, on “Parte de Mi,” strings and piano create an arresting connection between us and her â and her final song, “Baby,” is a bombastic head-bopper, enhanced by her deeply groove-oriented band, which includes everything from an accordion to a mandolin. Fittingly, Nicki Nicole has a tattoo on her neck which, in English, reads “bulls***.” She has said before that the tattoo represents her need to break free of the labels applied by both her culture and industry

From Sept. 15 through Oct. 15, Tiny Desk is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an “El Tiny” takeover of the (home) concert series, featuring J Balvin, Camila Cabello and several more musicians from all corners of Latinidad. Anamaria Sayre | October 15, 2021 To the beat of her swishing hips and swaying percussionists, Camila Cabello’s famous “Half of my heart is in Havana” reverberates across this musician-packed Miami set, with an at-home ease that feels novel for the global popstar. Born to a Cuban mother and Mexican father in Havana, Cuba, Cabello is no stranger to blending borders and connecting worlds. As the final performance in our Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration, her El Tiny concert epitomises the cross-cultural, transnational musical identities we’ve centered over the course of the series. Each unique arrangement of her universal hits represents and explores a new facet of the identities and experiences that make up Cabello. These stripped-down renditions of her hits “Havana,” “Real Friends,” “Señorita” and “Don’t Go Yet” include more Latin instrumentation than the recordings â presumably bringing them closer to sounds that were first introduced to her as music during her childhood in Havana, Mexico City, and Miami. The interlude featuring a sacred Afro-Cuban SanterĂa chant and the following performance of the unreleased, Mariachi-based “La Buena Vida,” firmly root Cabello’s El Tiny performance within two cultural traditions that don’t typically glitter under the harsh lights of a global stage. Here, we find Camila on the precipice of a voice that magically layers

@Camila Cabello #camilacabello #tinydesk #performance Camila Cabello Taps a Mariachi Band to Debut New Song âLa Buena Vidaâ on âTiny Deskâ Track will appear on the pop starâs next album, Familia Facebook Twitter Reddit Email Show more sharing options Camila Cabello enlisted the help of a mariachi band to debut a new song, âLa Buena Vida,â during her NPR Tiny Desk (Home) Concert. âLa Buena Vidaâ will appear on Cabelloâs upcoming album, Familia (she co-wrote it with Ricky Reed and Cheche Alara), and the Tiny Desk performance featured the California-based outfit, Mariachi Garibaldi de Jaime CuĂ©llar. The snappy tune finds Cabello belting a kiss-off over a swift rush of strings, horns, and guitars, âYou should be here, should be with me tonight/Said youâre working, youâre working all the time/Why am I all alone with your glass of wine?/Oh no, oh no, this is not the life.â Prior to debuting âLa Buena Vida,â Cabello ran through some of her biggest hits, with her backing band helping her reimagine them with more traditional Latin instrumentation. The setlist also featured âHavana,â âSeñorita,â âReal Friends,â and Cabelloâs recent single, âDonât Go Yet.â Before playing âLa Buena Vida,â Cabello also professed her love for the Tiny Desk series: âI actually watched them every morning during the making of my album,â she said. âEvery morning, I would put on a Tiny Desk and be introduced to some amazing new artist. So, Iâm really happy to be here today.â Familia will mark Cabelloâs third album and follow her 2019 effort, Romance. Although she announced the LP back in July alongside the release
