This is one of my favourite Taylor Swift performances, as it’s just her. Just her and a guitar and a piano.

Yeah their album is really good, and they're clearly both good live performers. Are you familiar with both of their solo/Bright Eyes/boygenius work?

I think I was listening to boygenius a bit at the time as well, mainly because of Phoebe Bridgers (not really familiar with the other two) and liked that as well.

My starting point for any of this would be the Bright Eyes album 'I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning' - let us know what you think!

Phoebe Bridgers is always good to listen to. Here's my personal favourite song from any Tiny Desk though, the beautiful rendition of Tonight, Tonight at the beginning of Billy Corgan's set.

How to embed Youtube vids

If not selected already you need to toggle the view in the reply box so that the BB code tags can be seen - these are pairs of square brackets. The button to do this is the one with the blue cursor in the red square brackets.
Use the 'flash' tags rather than the 'url' tags with a size in pixels appropriate for the display size and aspect ratio e.g. 480,270 is 16 by 9 and doesn't fill up too much of the screen.
Take the YouTube url and stick it between the flash tags but modify it by replacing '/watch?v=/' with '/v/' as follows:

Code: [Select]

[flash=480,270]https://www.youtube.com/v/C_oACPWGvM4[/flash]

[close]

It should then look like the version in your post quoted above.

Came in here to post the Mac Miller one and scrolled up to see if anyone had beaten me to it. It must not have loaded when i read your post.

It's a great one, and it's sadly poignant. When the last song (with the strings) starts, you can tell it's meaningful to him. it's hard not to feel something watching it

On a separate note, if anyone enjoying these hasn't heard of KEXP radio, then check them out too. They make similarly high quality recordings of great sessions.

Rhiannon Giddens, founder member of the Carolina Chocolate Drops (who did an absolute banging cover of Blu Cantrell's Hit 'em up style), but is now more of a solo artist.

A respected scholar of early black music, she is also known among (some) gamers for her contribution to the soundtrack for Red Dead Redemption 2. I love her voice and banjo style (also plays fiddle) but she also does great work bridging the gap between traditional and contempory music.

Skip to 8 minutes for something truly beautiful. Though, it's all beautiful.

I went to their gig in Gunnersbury Park a couple of weeks ago and they took my breath away, the strongest live vocals and harmonies I've ever heard. If there's any justice in the world, they'll be massive. (Not that they're not successful in their own right as solo artists).
