Two which are very different but which I really like are:

Tash Sultana - a ludicrous amount of talent! Wow!

Big Daddy Kane - just pure skill.

Enjoy!

Tom Tom Club...

Another great one here. Typically great Tiny Desk sound too. I had no idea she was this good until I saw this.

Wonderful.

 

[Hook]

Crazy Ukrainian folk music. Love it!

 

[Frizzy]

Wow, completely unaware of these mini gigs, lots of catching up to do!

A classic set from Beirut here. Zach Condon always looks terrified, bless him.

Tom Tom Club...

Wow - I missed that one: it's totally brilliant -I actually prefer that to Bryne's "look at me being arty" American Utopia performances

Two more notable performances here. Chalk and cheese, but equally brilliant.

Just on the first one, if you haven’t heard of Hades town, it’s a musical by Anais Mitchell and it’s completely wonderful. From 6.20 for goosebumps …

It’s easy to miss, less obvious and fashionable than DB. The sense of enjoying is great.

The Milk Carton Kids (Joey Ryan and Kenneth Pattengale) with a performance from July 2012.

They play the great "Michigan," "Stealing Romance," and "I Still Want a Little More" from the album "Prologue," which had been released in 2011.
Heartwarming!

I just found this from Jake Xerxes Fussell - a new name to me but definitely one I'll explore further. Americana, sweet sleepy Southern folk blues, reminded me of Elizabeth Cotton.

 

[poco a poco]

Immanuel Wilkins Quartet

ADG7 - Shamanic folk-pop from Korea. Irresistible high energy music and worth watching for the location, an "LP bar" in Korea.

 

[BillT]

Donny McCaslin. A few years old now. They played on Bowie's last album Blackstar and included is their own fersion of Lazarus.
