"I learned how to play guitar watching Tiny Desk concerts," Wednesday's lead singer Karly Hartzman says in the band's performance. Specifically, she says, by way of Mitski's scream-filled 2015 set. "The chords to these songs are pretty easy, if you want to mirror 'em."
The Asheville, N.C., rock band is constantly on the road, supporting Rat Saw God, which made NPR's best albums of 2023. But Wednesday made time to stop by NPR headquarters to play the Desk, toning down its noisy, country-influenced sound in a quieter setting. The rollicking opener "Chosen to Deserve" gets a pep in its step that begged for some in-office line dancing - nobody partook - before playing the quiet, romantic "Formula One" and ending with "Bath County."
And now, we count down to see which artist will cite Wednesday's performance as how they learned guitar.

@@gpotter14able, Jake is the lead guitarist on the right. He has a great project called MJ Lenderman.
lol so Jake is the guitarist on the right. He has his own fantastic project under the name "MJ Lenderman". @@gpotter14able
So weird hearing these songs so laid back haha. great band!
Fantastic pedal steel guitar
100% absolutely beautiful
I met these dudes back in 2020. They lit some fireworks off after their set in Indy and chatted with us hooligans. Glad they are still jamming and have blown up quite a bit
On a friend’s recommendation last summer I was listening to Rat Saw God while out walking the dog at night and had kind of an out of body experience during Chosen to Deserve. A group of us saw them at the Sinclair in Cambridge a little while later. They brought it, for sure. Love seeing them get some real attention and love seeing them in the Tiny Desk. Thank you!
sososo happy to see this concert finally released!!!! So proud of Karly for making it full circle!!!!!! Happy international women's day!!!!
This band is just the best. Was lucky enough to see them in Raleigh on this tour when I was in town for a few days and it was one of my favorite shows I’ve seen :)
One of my favorite bands out. Can’t wait to see y’all in 2 months
I remember finding "I was trying to describe you to someone" a few years back. been hooked on Wednesday since. glad they have made it this far!
Did she say they got high on Benadryl?..Ok I'm in...this is bluegrass ? Its got soul.
pedal steel player is crushing it
Been bumping Rat Saw God for months, so awesome to see them here too
the twangier takes on these songs sound soooo good
NORTH CAROLINA ROCK FOREVERRRR!!!❤❤❤
Ahh the iconic Mitski tiny desk mention!
The guitarist, M.J. Lenderman, is a fine singer songwriter in his own right.
Think... Kurt Vile meets Gram Parsons.
You’re right ! Love Boat Songs !
meets Neil Young!
@@melindalemmon2149 kurt vile not kurt weil lol
Also Jason Molina and Neil Young… he’s the real deal.
Wednesday!? I didn't know that they were this big. Bull Believer was my favorite song of 2022
She has such a distinct voice, hearing her sing in any song I instantly think, that's Wednesday hahaha
man at least try and sing or take a lesson or two or dont sing at all....
@@RobertSloversome of the best musicians of all time have imperfections with their singing. Some of the best technical singers are some of the most hated artists. So idk
Reminds me a little of Mary Margaret O'Hara. Although Mary Margaret is considerably better 🤷.
Fantastic!!! I've got to see these guys again next time they swing by NYC!!!
I had to miss these guys in ABQ, bc I was in Nashville at the time they came. Nice to see them pop up here!!
the chapter titles are wrong. first song is called "chosen to deserve", second song is called "formula one", third song is called "bath county"
Idk why it seems like they're so inconsistent with having chapters set up on tiny desk videos
Wonderful concert.😊
Dont usually listen to this type of music but something attracts me to this band and music. Sounds amazing on my xm4 headphones.
Same here 😊
They do have a strange allure to them. And their albums get better and better the more you listen to them. Great in the xm4’s
Lovely!!!!
Wow!! Randomly stumbled upon this video- found a new group to listen to 😊
aye shoutout the drummer with the hotline tnt shirt
they just finished a tour with hotline tnt :)
Been waiting for this for weeeeeks
Just lovely! 🙂
I can walk on water, I can raise the dead... every daughter of God has a little hard luck sometimes? I didn't expect a random Loudon Wainwright paraphrase, but always happy to be reminded of him
Easily one of my favorite bands at the moment ❤
Muy muy muy buenos, gracias.
One of the best Tiny Desks I've seen in a long while. Gorgeous arrangement!
I ❤ Wednesday
love this!!!!!! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
5 days late but shout out to Karly. .Can't wait to see y'all in Portland again in May!
gang crushed this. blue ridge mountains represent
Hi....💙
What an inspiring voice and presence.....
Many thanks for the waves.💙
man at least try and sing or take a lesson or two or dont sing at all....
@@RobertSlover Hi.... what do you mean? That I should buy some ears because you do not like what we ear in these video? Music is about what we feel... if you do not feel anything for what we ear in the video, have a great continuation! And if you want me to take lessons to sing, I do lot need anything.... I won't sing for everyone, so I do not have problems....
And have a fine continuation anyway.
😉👍👌
@@rnor3146 ?
Beautiful
Whoo Whee! Y'all, Tell It with your talented music and sick lit wit!
I came across the channel npr music by chance and I really like its style🎻🎧
Oh their engineers are the unsung heroes. Enjoy the back catalogue
@@johnnymancspicewdym unsung. I agree, they are amazing, but they are consistently one of the most talked about parts of Tiny Desk
@@mocapcow2933 tru dat
Love the sound , love the tone of the lead singer.
Exactly what I needed
Love to see a band that looks like they are just having the best time. Also loved the shuffle thing they did for the first song.
Great stuff! 🤘💀🤘
bath county slay
Thank You for the advice, I am trying to learn the guitar. Great performance!
muito da hora!!
I hadn't noticed the Bonnie Prince Billy vibe until this tiny desk. Great performance
Gotta see this band live!!
Worth it! I saw them last may and have been a fan since 2021!
oh my god yes you need to, saw them twice last summer was so sick
I don’t know why I’ve never heard of this band before, but I’m an instant fan from the first minute of this video. They sound like Lucinda Williams singing lead vocals for Sonic Youth.
Great time for the girl i’ve chosen to deserve
happy every time i see them play anything, lets go wednesdaaaaay
Omg no way congratulations!!
those vocal flips be killin me!!
Shows her talent right there
man at least try and sing or take a lesson or two or dont sing at all....
yesss
I honestly thought I was a day behind😂 Learnt how to play from watching NPR, wow I have heard of languages being learnt from film and tv. So not so unusual…not! Impressive. Shame two days off😂 I must say they seem very comfortable performing it shows..
Thanks for the like I just read an interview too I am not even their target audience!!! I blame country music radio 🍎for taking so much interest never used to be case I can assure you!!
¡Qué bonito!

Its friday, and they want us to believe is wednesday? They wont gaslight me! Nonono 😼

MJ Lenderman is the truth. I love this band so much. I want to see them live SOOOO BAD!!!!

헉 라이브 왜케 잘해요. 노래 넘 잘한다. +_+
I wonder how many DAYS they skipped showing for this
Yo its Wednesday!
I swear almost every modern music act I like somehow ends up doing a tiny desk and I am all for it
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
had one of the best nights of my life at a wednesday concert let's go wednesday!!!!!
thats sad man.
@@RobertSlover what's sad is trying to usurp the joy of a stranger's youtube comment. it's okay that you don't get it, you weren't there :)
@@samanthalosee8069 if one only gets joy from youtube comments thats the saddest thing ever man.
@@RobertSloverthey didn’t even say they get joy from TH-cam comments. They said you get joy from it, which you definitely seem to
@@RobertSloveryou need to gain some joy and whimsy brother
True heros
Ah yes, American “Black Country New Road”
What? Idk if this is an in joke or something I missed, but how?
Bubbles is a great drummer
MJ is the freaking man 👍
I'm only a few seconds into this video but I have to say I found Wednesday a couple months ago hearing bull believer and felt like real music was actually coming back. Wednesday is the real deal and they have some winners brewing for the future I'm sure. Bravo
OMG she's amazing. New diehard fan. ❤
The drum change on chosen is so jarring
Agreed, love the idea but not the best execution 😕
best band
Saw them in Dublin recently, they were so good. Love this band.
Drugs and Greensboro?! Never 😐
Just imagine Joni Mitchell
poets
Pedal steel god.
this is so sick to hear it as country
Still waiting for Justin Timberlake performance !!!
Every daughter of God has a little bad luck sometimes ❤️🔥
Poignant lyrics and terrific voice .. great band. I like it.
Nah you not fooling me this came out on a Friday nice try tho npr
✨💖✨🌊🌀🎶✌🏼🫶🏼🙏🏼
