Sleater-Kinney: Tiny Desk Concert

[@borderlineguitarguy]

The dream of the 90's is alive at Tiny Desk.

[@lost_boy]

I'm sure Fred is hiding in there somewhere....

[@mekitronette]

love how carrie still does her high kicks on tiny desk

[@kicksnarehats11]

Tiny high kick. Absolutely essential in any live situation.

[@BenDavidin5785]

I specifically thought “guess she won’t get it in for this one but that’s ok”

[@ljmolly4029]

Absolute legends. Also, musicians who create for 30+yrs often evolve their sound. Love them for the phase you loved them for, enjoy your day, and keep it moving. 🙂

[@wizardofaus8473]

"Say It Like You Mean It" Wow!! So powerful. What a wonderful song. Thank you

[@marleygiggey3650]

The video description is fantastic. 😂

[@lb5368]

Omg your comment made me go read it, and Stephen Thompson is NOT AT ALL bitter! Love the NPR family dynamics LOL😂❤

[@chimchim2_]

Your comment should be pinned 🤣

[@plainforgiven]

I agree! So much 💜💜💜

[@joesmith4443]

I saw them back in 1997 open for Yo La Tengo in NYC. I wonder if that place is still around where I saw them. It was literally a dive bar. haha

@@clintkantor Thank you so much I was trying to remember the name. That’s it… good memory. 👍🏻

[@jbot44114]

I didn't realize they released an album this year! What a wonderful surprise! They've been putting out amazing work since they got back together for No Cities to Love.

[@devincreislerstudios]

Amazing! I saw them in Seattle 3 weeks ago.

[@silverfacetwin]

Great performance, the new album is awesome!! It's so cool seeing Toko Yasuda playing with Sleater-Kinney, she was in the brilliant band Enon and has performed with St. Vincent and Blonde Redhead over the years. Please give Enon - "In This City" a listen if you haven't, criminally underrated band.

[@OS-fi7py]

I love sk! Been listening to them since the early 2000s. So influential with riot grrrrl . Amazing music! Has helped thorough so much. Hope to see them I've in Seattle one day!!! Amazing music.

[@OS-fi7py]

The Woods is such a stunning album! Awesome to see them still performing those songs today

Wow, you are all fabulous musicians, 🎶 I really enjoyed it. Greetings from Frankfurt 👏🏻

[@shayjohnson7204]

Omg I’ve loved them for so long!!!! I was so happy to see this pop up in my notifications.

[@annajohansson3018]

Just lovely versions with the strings!

[@Nobutigotcheesewiz]

Saw them live and it changed my life

[@acivilright]

Love them! Hope they come to Baltimore one day.

[@alexandrosalexandropoulos4836]

Absolutely f@@@@@g brilliant! Totally awesome! Greetings from Athens, Greece.

[@sallysson]

Their vibe is like a cold glass of lemonade on a sunny Summer afternoon.

[@Umbra_Witcher]

wow jumpers and untidy creature, two of my favorite songs of theirs (love the others too). i regret missing them and black belt eagle scout in ABQ. edit: that was fantastic.

[@musleman8]

How good was that. And to play the last track on the album, awesome

[@mcillustrator]

Sleater-Kinney is a National Treasure. One of those bands that gave me goosebumps from the first song I heard so many years ago to this incredible performance.

[@mdbergfeld]

I just love them. Saw them live in Bruxelles, Belgium a few days before we went into Covid lockdown. Their music carried me thru the 2 yrs of pandemic.

[@aaronedgeart]

Legends.

[@shiraleeana]

Oh yeah Modern Girl 🤘🤘

[@betoski]

Same ❤

[@lost_boy]

I saw them play that in London, UK, just before the pandemic and it was basically a powerful, almost religious experience for me. Love it.

[@michelebella677]

I could listen to Modern Girl on repeat for days.

[@matthewjames206]

Ahh, okay. The song "Jumpers" is about suicides on the Golden Gate Bridge. I've read that article but never knew SK wrote a song about it. Morbid subject matter never sounded so good. This was awesome. I only wish it had been a bit longer. Wonderful regardless 👏👏👍👍

[@C.H.TRES.]

saludos de uruguay muy bueno !!!!

[@VictoriaWhitlock]

This just makes me so happy

[@shockingguy]

“Say It Like You Mean It” wow 🔥

[@lost_boy]

Brilliant performance, as always! ❤❤❤

[@bkooo5363]

I'm glad Corin and Carrie are making music. Call the Doctor is one of the best albums ever and I'm glad to have seen them so many times.

[@felina5440]

[@BillyRubin81]

What a treat. Love these girls. Dig Me Out is so good. is that THE String Quartet playing with them?? if so wow. They're also a group I've enjoyed a lot over the years.

[@TheFastAndFuriousReader]

[@robertoederweisjuarez9225]

[@wiseguy100]

The beginning of the first song was giving strong 'My Lovely Horse' version 1 vibes, from Father Ted.

[@deeliciousplum]

Oh?! 🥰 Wonderful!

[@KatieWentKaboom]

I just remembered I saw them live and teamed up a little 😂❤

[@sierra6936]

Wonderful 👏👏👏👏👏✨✨✨👏🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@mattfromcleveland]

They used the same drum kit featured on the album Pet Sounds.

[@kalvino67]

This is as acoustic as Sleater-Kinney gets!

[@paulwhetstone0473]

I’m getting a smooth road rage vibe from these musicians.

[@davisjustin1313]

Ay-o river!

[@cob4lt2]

I would consider "The Woods" as my top 10 favourite album of all time and Sleater-Kinney as one of my favourite bands ever, but this is really sad how little energy and power there is without Janet on the drums. Especially hearing "Jumpers" played slower, but not slow, just mediocre. I don't know man, this isn't doing it for me :(

[@arjun-teacheranddrummer2474]

The song is amazingly busy 🎉

[@Jes1975]

R.i.p. sleater kinney … died the day Janet left. Still love them but I said what I said ✌️❤️

[@rabidgoon]

They died the last album she played on, which is the album that made her leave. The one produced by the insufferably pretentious st vincent.

[@Polypores44]

​@rabidgoon hows so ab the production? Id like to knkw before i listen to it. Very sad janet left

[@deepakchoke-ya2560]

I still have respect for Sleater-Kinney. Not a fan of their new musical direction though. Sounds too sanded down and of course, without Janet Weiss’s drumming, that urgency her playing provided is gone.
