Laura Gibson's Tiny Desk Concert at NPR Music

[scottwasson]

Her voice floats through the air like the gentlest summer breeze. Just sayin...

[Perditionist]

She's amazing :)

[pierce9ray]

so this is the very first TDC?

[droptopful]

totally reminds me of regina spektor

[Swingfinger]

@droptopful I see that too... but Regina has like 10x more confidence

[001tape]

thanks for posting

[JayBGeorge]

grat job you have it its a gift JB

[futoncat]

She should grow her nails out a bit more, i think. It's hard to see them...

[BigThingsAhGwaan]

@futoncat Nails+Guitar= Problems

[futoncat]

@BigThingsAhGwaan Actually... the classical technique of playing guitar focuses on using grown-out nails. Not super long nails, but it uses the nails to play the strings. So there shouldn't be any problems with that.

[mirandann2010]

@BigThingsAhGwaan I think no nails is a bigger problem!

[michaelaaronart]

I like! sometimes simple is just straight up better

[therollinghillspark]

thank god for REAL music

[sethl611]

what's with the negativity? she's doing her thing, why hate?

[everythiiiiing]

The only thing this bitch is good at is sounding just like thousands of other female "folk singers" before her. Way to go. I want to hear something NEW.

[xoxoAcklesxoxo]

@everythiiiiing Did it make you feel better about yourself to bring someone else down?

[everythiiiiing]

@xoxoAcklesxoxo It made me feel fucking amazing, thanks for asking LEWSER.

[xoxoAcklesxoxo]

@everythiiiiing Then you must have very low self esteem<3

[everythiiiiing]

@ytcarol Thanks, Mom. Your last sentence makes no fucking sense, BUT nice attempt at making yourself seem like an average house wife. 

[jaksspring97]

voice like Ingrid Michaelson or Regina Spektor...just not quite as talented.

[yourdogsmusic]

@jaksspring97 I disagree. Lyrically, she's a lot more....well, she's talented compared to Ingrid Michaelson. I mean, come on, really? Michaelson's lyrics are really straight foward. There's no poetic interpretation. Her lyrics are kinda cheesy. This woman, though, Gibson's words are beautiful and creative.

[jopiang]

Really terrible. A few lessons of guitar are urgently needed

[jopiang]

@LivingwithoutAir912 Your father taught you "bad" things

[07BSPtC]

@jopiang This is why she has a recording contract and you don't.

[Voldemoramex]

This is one of my favorite songs ever

Im trying to put a tab together and this video is really helpfull ;)

[gaetanproductions]

Beautiful beautiful voice - Thanks

[kareljuwet]

I'm not particlularly fond of her voice, but I like the whole, kinda like Bob Dylan, he's not got the best voice, but he can put music together like no-one else can.

She's got some talent here I think...

[LivingwithoutAir912]

get samamdion.

pleaseeeee.

i beg.

[leonalquin]

thank you very much!

[MiaMountainLover]

amazing! <3

[ProfessorBackhand]

i love her music sooo much.

i want to find guitar tabs to any of her songs sooo badly. grrrr!!!

[emisun]

you can see her play so just pick em put.

[thPhilepII]

very wonderful! I'm quieted, in the best way, when listening to her music...

[failureobject]

she is soooo great..

everyone who loves her voice should check jenny owen youngs.. she is pretty similiar to hers.

[JackMoch]

@failureobject you nailed that. as soon as this video started she reminded me of someone and that's exactly who it is

[Datarah]

So simple sounding, so pleasant.

[DeltaBluesClassics]

Mesmerizing.

[DeltaBluesClassics]

Wow! That was great.

[EurekaSpringsAR]

Magnificent... Thank you... I scoured the web during swsx for videos providing a chance to hear what was going on... so many recordings suffered the drowning fate you describe in the video. Thanks for this.
