Weezer

On April 1, 2019, Weezer performed an acoustic set at the NPR Music Tiny Desk, showcasing a more intimate side of the band, known for their high-energy electric performances. At this time, Weezer had recently released their self-titled album, often referred to as the "Teal Album," which came out in January of the same year. This album included covers of classic songs, highlighting their versatility and willingness to explore different styles. Interestingly, the Tiny Desk concert presented a unique opportunity for the band to strip down their sound and engage in a casual and relaxed atmosphere, allowing frontman Rivers Cuomo to connect with the audience in an unprecedented way. The performance also demonstrated Weezer's adaptability as they transitioned from their earlier, more guitar-driven rock sound to include a mix of genres, singing iconic tracks in a fresh acoustic format during this period of their career.
