Tiny Desk Radio
FRIDAYS: 12pm | SATURDAYS: 7pm

Each week, Tiny Desk Radio hosts Bobby Carter and Anamaria Sayre present three Tiny Desk concerts and share how these memorable (and sometimes viral) moments came together. You'll hear world-class musicians from the worlds of pop, jazz, classical, Americana, hip-hop, R&B and more stripping down their sound for a concert series that's unlike anything else on the internet — or the radio.

Architectural Digest tour of Tiny Desk

Co-host Bobby Carter took Architectural Digest on a tour through the Tiny Desk workspace. Primary Tiny Desk audio engineer Josh Newell commented on the unique sound of Tiny Desk concerts: “The space sounds shockingly good for being an office. We’re not using drum samples, we’re not doing autotune, it’s a very natural thing.”
