Miguel: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

Miguel turned up in the NPR Music offices early one morning, after playing a show late the night before. He appeared light and calm, and betrayed no hint that he was nervous about stripping his highly produced hits down to their bones. Accompanied by just his guitarist, Dru DeCaro, Miguel eschewed flash and went big on small gestures — ingratiating ad libs, only one full spin, and voice control that kept the songs close to his chest but emotive enough to translate to the back of the room. See how it all went down above, enjoy.
