NPR Music's Tiny Desk concert series has transitioned to Tiny Desk (home) concerts, showcasing performances from artists around the world in intimate settings. British singer-songwriter Lianne La Havas recently returned to Tiny Desk, this time from her home in London. Known for her captivating acoustic sets, La Havas first appeared on Tiny Desk in 2015, becoming one of the most popular performances in the show's history.

Lianne La Havas, born Lianne Charlotte Barnes, entered the music scene after collaborating with artists like Paloma Faith and signing with Warner Bros. Records in 2010. Her debut album, "Is Your Love Big Enough?" (2012), received critical acclaim and earned her nominations for the BBC's Sound of 2012 poll and the iTunes Album of the Year 2012. La Havas has since released two more studio albums, "Blood" in 2015 and a self-titled album in 2020, garnering Grammy and Brit Awards nominations throughout her career.

During her recent Tiny Desk (home) concert, La Havas delivered soulful renditions of her songs, showcasing her distinctive musical style that mixes elements of soul, folk, and R&B. Fans were treated to a mesmerizing performance that highlighted her powerful vocals and stripped-down arrangements, reminiscent of her earlier Tiny Desk appearance that resonated with audiences worldwide.

This unique performance from Lianne La Havas at Tiny Desk (home) not only reaffirms her talent as a singer-songwriter but also reinforces the series' ability to bring intimate and captivating music experiences to audiences, even in the midst of a global pandemic.
