About

Big Thief, the beloved American indie folk band based in Brooklyn, New York, recently performed a cozy and playful Tiny Desk concert from the comfort of a home setting in "windy Connecticut." Led by the talented singer-songwriter Adrianne Lenker, the band showcased songs from their latest double album, "Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe in You," released in 2022.

The concert featured tender tales and poetic lyrics typical of Big Thief's music, with Adrianne Lenker's solo work and guitarist Buck Meek's solo album, "Two Saviors," also highlighted for their lyrical depth. The intimate acoustic set included performances by Max Oleartchik on upright bass and drummer James Krivchenia, who also produced Big Thief's recent album.

Big Thief has gained acclaim since their debut in 2016 with "Masterpiece," followed by successful albums like "Capacity" in 2017 and signing with 4AD to release standout albums "U.F.O.F." and "Two Hands" in 2019. Their latest album, "Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe in You," received critical praise and Grammy nominations, further solidifying the band's position in the indie music scene. The Tiny Desk concert provided a unique glimpse into the band's softer and more intimate side, showcasing their musical versatility and poetic lyricism in a homely setting.
