Mountain Man stopped by NPR to perform a Tiny Desk Concert of songs from its Nonesuch debut album, Magic Ship. You can watch it here. "Mountain Man is the perfect band for a Tiny Desk concert," says host Bob Boilen. "These three women make the most intimate music; and behind the desk, [their] voices were the stars." He goes on to say that "there's a true kinship that happens in this trio ... There's no other band like them." Mountain Man resumes its US tour in March and has just announced several new dates in May and June.
Mountain Man recently stopped by the NPR offices in Washington, DC, to perform a Tiny Desk Concert for Bob Boilen and the staff at NPR and NPR Music. The set included three songs from the trio's Nonesuch debut album, Magic Ship: "Rang Tang Ring Toon," "Moon," and "Stella." You can watch the full set below.
"Mountain Man is the perfect band for a Tiny Desk concert," says Boilen. "These three women make the most intimate music; and behind the desk, the voices of Amelia Meath, Molly Erin Sarlé and Alexandra Sauser-Monnig were the stars." He goes on to say that "there's a true kinship that happens in this trio ... Mountain Man is endearing. ... There's no other band like them." You can read more at npr.org.
