Can you explain what are those? I heard him in an interview talking about being used to playing with the instruments connected to battery packs, so they always use them. Is that what this is?

Might be a matter of tone: Those amps get the tone they want and need to play that way, so those are what they use.

​@@oopskapootz7276 Yes, the amps behind them are manufactured by a brand called Orange. A "stack" is a setup where the amplifier is separate from the speaker(s) and usually rests on top, hence the term, stack. A stack setup is usually very loud and wouldn't be necessary for such a small and intimate environment such as a Tiny Desk Concert 👍

can recommend tinariwen and the les filles de illighadad. the latter has/had fatou seidi ghali and Fatimata Ahmadelher two of the only female tuareg guitarists overcoming social gender boundaries but also musical gender roles. while tinariwen is probably the most polished of the sahel bands - they also have a great set on kexp.

You can find the pilot episode if you google "Lassie" and "African remake" (or at least you could until this summer. Haven't checked for it since July)
