Yo La Tengo

In July 2013, when Yo La Tengo performed at the NPR Music Tiny Desk concert, they were promoting their album "Fade," which had been released earlier that year. "Fade" marked a significant moment in their career as it was their first album released on the Matador Records label after a long association with Sub Pop and other labels. This concert showcased the band's blend of indie rock and experimental sounds that they had honed over their extensive career since their formation in 1984. An interesting fact about this performance is that it captures the band's characteristic approach to intimate settings, highlighting their ability to create a captivating atmosphere despite the simplicity of the Tiny Desk venue. The performance also reflects their reputation for blending various styles and influences, which has made them a beloved figure in the indie music scene.
