Aoife O’Donovan delivered a Tiny Desk (Home) Concert. The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter performed tunes from her 2022 album, Age Of Apathy, for the renowned NPR Music performance video series.
In a nod to Tiny Desk Concert’s usual home at NPR Music chief Bob Boilen’s bookshelf framed desk, the Boston-born O’Donovan performed her Tiny Desk (Home) Concert from Portsmouth Book & Bar in Portsmouth, New Hampshire surrounded by books. Aoife’s band consisted of multi-instrumentalist Isa Burke, bassist Ethan Jodziewicz and drummer Robin MacMillan. O’Donovan would also welcome a special guest to close out her four-song Tiny Desk set.
Aoife got the session underway with the second track off Age Of Apathy, “B61,” followed by the LP’s fifth track, “Elevators.” O’Donovan also offered lead single “Phoenix” before welcoming guitarist and tour mate Yasmin Williams to close the session with Age Of Apathy’s title track.
