The Weather Station: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert

[@idoruZe]

One of the best feelings in the world: the first time you hear a band you did not know, that becomes an immediate favorite. Tears in my eyes.

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

That's great! Her album "Loyalty" was probably my favorite of 2015. Like other great artists, Tamara has developed with each album while being true to her voice. She's a lovely lyricist. I was excited when I saw this in my feed - the new album is one of my favorites of this years' - but still only got to watch it now. There are so much good music!

[@ryan-millsap]

There are good reasons to cry!

[@Joris0815]

Theyve been on here before, one of the best performances imo go check them out!

[@DeboraaCouto]

Here I am, once again, becoming obsessed with yet another artist because of the Tiny Desk concerts.

[@jni9362]

Sammmme the last few uploads have been 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@skyebarkschat]

i fully understand!! i become obsessed with the REAL personalities, like Ani Difranco & Michelle Shocked, when i get to hear them talk after their incredible musical performances!!

[@Noizedas]

Wouldn’t this be considered seven artists? It’s a band

[@jordansaintemarie]

@@Noizedas the weather station is Tamara’s moniker. The musicians she plays with are playing for her.

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

@@Noizedas These are musicians who played on her fifth album (there were more on the recordings). I think couple of these played on her previous album and fewer than that on the album before that. Plenty of solo artists form band for different projects and tours (but there tend to be a core)

[@stellabella3490]

The piano guy is feeling the vibe on a whole new level.

I cannot describe how well put-together they are as a band. Their performance sounds like it was recorded in a studio not in somewhere in the woods. Tamara’s sensual breezy voice always gives me a good deal of chill and leaves me in awe.

[@halt.halt.halt.]

Ignorance is one of the best albums of this year and this tiny desk is brilliant. Thanks much for the beautiful performance!

[@mestral8401]

Marvellous

[@charlesc2095]

Just got home from driving in the rain, which got heavier when I lay my back on the bed. Open YT up to see a new TDC video of an artist I didnt know, whose music somehow fit the current weather perfectly. This feels better than winning the lottery.

[@narcissticgoddess]

I just got back from running in the rain here in Manila and stumbled upon this video too. How fitting!

[@charlesc2095]

@@narcissticgoddess coincidentally, because of this video I jumped on Spotify to download all their songs so I listen to them while I run tomorrow morning. Definitely rainy season vibes with this group

Who gives magic like this a 'thumbs down'? Beautiful words, music, visual setting....love it

[@bonnefires5835]

Tamara/The Weather Station are straight up amazing.

[@skyebarkschat]

i LOVE that there's a female sax player!! As a former sax player, it's so exciting to see people who carried it on!

[@Happilee97]

Look up Mellisa Aldana, Tia Fuller, and Grace Kelly. I think you will be pleased.

[@Shazzington]

If you want more Karen Ng, she also plays on Lido Pimienta's Tiny Desk Concert.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

It is almost unbelievable that they can make this recording in Gods free nature with this super sound quality. "In the woods today". But yes, this is a suitable environment concerning the message in Tamara Lindemans songs. I just love this music.

[@dunscap]

Hey Staffan. I recorded this performance. Thanks for the compliment on the recording. Means a lot!

[@staffanolofsson8201]

@@dunscap Thank you Patric, you did a great job, unbelieveble good sound in this outdoor recording!

This is great music ! My foot is taping Her voice tells a story like some wise Wonderfull beautiful woman And the music just pushes it along Perfectly.

[@nalaleah]

Best musical surprise since "angel in the house" by The Story

[@kiereluurs1243]

This is like a warm bath stepping back in. I knew them from a KEXP-session. Those first 2 songs always remind me of Fleetwood Mac.

Sempre me espanto com a qualidade sonora que vejo por aqui!!! sem falar dos artistas

[@Charmnews]

That build up from 6:52 onward is just insane

[@hori_ink82]

At least COVID has given us these wicked NPR settings away from the book shelves at the office 👌

[@t4exanadu]

I already knew The Weather Station and love them but ANY band that plays from the woods is my kind of band. I can't think of a better setting for beautiful music than the beauty of the natural world! Unrelated, but hoping to see Loma on Tiny Desk one day (pretty please... no idea how to request).

the band is super groovy !!! dope and on point Grüße aus Heidelberg

HEAVY PERFORMANCE RIGHT THERE

[@DrewThiemann]

I really enjoyed the livestream concert a few months ago, but it had very different camerawork (darker framing, more intimate close-ups). This is an excellent counterpoint. Really enjoyed the side-scrolling tableau. Come back to Louisville!

[@toconnor77]

Amazing

[@ThirteenPastMidnight]

Her voice reminds me of Chrissie Hynde ♥️

[@MyAfropuff]

Was literally just about to type this!

[@rd4660]

And a third vote. However she could have been a little more edgy. There’s some potential there.

[@chancemiller9340]

If Chrissie had been inspired by the "500 Days of Summer" soundtrack. But yes, I hear it as well.

Quite enjoyable. Fleetwood Mac comes to mind but their songs are strong enough to not sound repetitive. Hope nobody came down with poison ivy.

Lovely performance by a great artist! But why oh why NPR did you decide to upload with black bars? It was obviously shot in a wide aspect ratio and as such it feels a shame not to be able to experience this beautiful video in its full glory...
