Josh Ritter: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
Loading...
Uploaded by nprmusic on Apr 11, 2011
Josh Ritter carries himself with the bearing of a folk-singing mayor: gregarious, charming, down-to-earth and impeccably dressed. But there's not an ounce of insincerity about him, or else he'd have found a way to sing the apocalyptic ballad "The Temptation of Adam" without letting all those wry smiles slip through. Watch Ritter perform a Tiny Desk Concert at the NPR Music offices.
Set List:
The Temptation Of Adam
Lark
Rattling Locks
Kathleen

Dear Mr. Ritter,
If you ever decide to leave your wife (yes, I acknowledge that this is unlikely and uncharacteristic), I would like to propose that we get together and have beautiful, happy, smiley, musical, poetic, and generally perfect babies. Just sayin'.
Fondest Regards,

he smiles his way through songs and thats amazing

I love how he closes his eyes as if he's getting lost in his music.
Lovely performance. C:

Especially in the first song, he sounds stunningly like Conor Oberst. Not a bad thing, not saying he is derivative or anything. Just saying they sound a lot alike.

I have faith that there will be zero "dislikes" even if you don't care for the music, this guy is the genuine thing, happy to be doing what he's doing and appreciative the whole time.
