  • The Oklahoma band's droning minor-key hymns were seemingly made for wide-open spaces and big skies. The group brings that spirit to the Tiny Desk for a spacious but intimate performance at the NPR Music offices.
    Set List:
    "For 12"
    "Old Statues"
    "Dust Bowl III"

    I’m 50, and when I was off work two days ago, I had an empty house alone , kids and wife at school, and sang and strum these amazing songs to the top of my lungs

    Just have to say. I LOVE THIS. I know this isnt a terribly popular band which only makes it all the more special. I LOVE ALL OF YOU. You are special people. SO FEW bands today touch me in the same way as this does. Ever since I saw this Ive been back time and time again and Ill keep coming back to this video until Im 90 years old. This band deserves more attention than I feel theyre getting. Its merely a symptom of living in todays confused and lost world. "Other Lives", if you see this, know that YOU ARE appreciated and it would mean a great deal to me if you keep tapping into the well from which you pulled up these three magical and moving songs. Finding this band marked a uniquely strange time in my life.

      musicisbrilliant There is plenty of serious and sincere music out there today, you just have to dig it out. You won't hear it on the radio. I just discovered this band a few days ago and I'm glad I did. This is beautiful.

    This band is currently my favorite and has been since I first heard Tamer Animals in 2011. I saw them in Chicago (Lincoln Hall, Feb 2012) and Grand Rapids, MI (Nov 2012) and would've gone to see their last Tamer Animals show in Chicago again if I could've made the trip. They are incredible live and, by all accounts, the grand finale at Lincoln Hall on Dec 8th was amazing. I'm so looking forward to hearing what they do next!!

    Oh I was in the dark age
    Searching for the ones in my mind.
    I'm so far away
    But I had hit the ground runnin'.
    Steady as you go, I don't mind.
    I'm still here today.
    Oh spouting hymns and buzzing rhymes
    And forever talking when it ain't so kind.
    But it feels like forever on the run.
    When your mind turns to fiction.
    And I had took the long way.
    And I was in the heat,
    I don't mind, I'm so far away.
    But it feels like forever on the run.
    When your mind turns to fiction.
    Nudging the ghost from the skull.
    And a night without sleep.
    Vibration comes first to the head and last to the feet.
    Spouting hymns and buzzing rhymes
    And forever talking when it ain't so kind.
    But it feels like forever on the run.
    When your mind turns to fiction.
    So long, So long..

    The ORIGINAL Lauryn Hill unplugged concert recordings. The old Philip Glass Mad Rush WITHOUT the digital remaster from Sony. You can get the songs, but not the originals. These are too good for the public domain. Nothing can compete. Nobody would ever feel the need to buy the bleeding albums. Fortunately this one dropped on tiny desk.
