From The Desk of...

"On or around" April 24th NPR Music will announce the winner of its now annual TIny Desk Contest. It's spun off the wildly popular Tiny Desk Concert series and each year attracts thousands of submissions. Northern California has a huge showing with roughly 70 performances spanning the radio tower reach of CapRadio (and another 700 from the entire state of Califonia.

I'm entirely too lazy to write about every one so here's a paired down list of artists that caught my attention. And from THAT list - we have two on this week's playlist.
