Submissions for NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts are open, a great opportunity for local bands to have their music seen and heard by the outlet. We filmed this submission for Stagbriar nine years ago, and that’s how our Papa Jazz Sessions began. It’s a great opportunity for bands to get creative with a stripped back setup and visuals.
