- May 27, 2016 by FELIX CONTRERAS • Carrie Rodriguez has been many things: a classically trained violinist turned American fiddler, a duet partner to veteran songwriter Chip Taylor, a successful and popular solo artist in her own right. On occasion, those roles have allowed her Mexican-American roots to bubble to the surface - perhaps in a line sung in Spanish, or through a reference to a classic mariachi song.
On her new album Lola, Rodriguez's bi-cultural life blossoms into a spectacular collection of stories and songs, several of which she included in this Tiny Desk concert with guitarist Luke Jacobs.
Lola is available now:
iTunes: itunes.apple.c...
Amazon: www.amazon.com/...
Set List:
"I Dreamed I Was Lola Beltrán"
"Llano Estacado'"
"Noche De Ronda"

Producers: Felix Contreras, Niki Walker; Audio Engineer: Josh Rogosin; Videographers: Niki Walker, Kara Frame; Production Assistant: Jackson Sinnenberg; Photo: Brandon Chew/NPR.

I came across her through a podcast and it was so engaging that I immediately looked for her and WOW, I just love her singing.
Awesome American. Love her Spanish singing. We need more singers like her.
Check out Gina Chavez singing Maiz.
I just saw her on Mountain Stage..she is FANTASTIC live!!!
Why is she not on the radio. She is awesome
Thank you Tiny Desk for these musicians! Greetings from Venezuela.
What really makes me mad is that many of today's producers and artists record music in professional studios over weeks and weeks with multiple mixings and come up with material that sounds worse than what two people do in a makeshift studio in an office space recorded live with no remixing or editing. How is that possible?
It's called talent my friend...and she has it in spades.
Because commercialization is fake. This is authentic. Authentic is easy. Much harder to fake it.
Her fiddling is AWESOME!!!
Let’s have Carrie back soon on Tiny Desk Concert 👏🏼
I love the way she infuses Spanish into her vocal phrasing. Nice!
me too!
She´s wonderful.
My lawd Carrie is an amazing fiddle player! What a beautiful performance!
@10:15 esa voz! the way she sings Noche De Ronda... and that fiddle solo. wow.
Great great great - Carrie Rodriguez everyone
You just cannot beat this!
Hey Carrie and Luke. Sounding wonderful. Hopefully get to see you perform in Australia one day.
awesome carrie combinig spanish and english works beautifully way to go
My mom was born in 1915. I remember hearing her sing Noche de Ronda.
....when she picked up her violin around 14:00 mins - yesss!
Violin solo was the best!!
That last song came from Mr Agustín Lara, one of the most famous mexican composer...
that slide guitar is what it's all about
oh something else. Spanish Country or Flamenco with dirty Boots. I like new ways on the Fingerboard. Please continue to create this Sound. Rise without borders
Love the moment when Luke stands there in awe :)
awe....no not really....he seems very aware of her limitations actually.....she's got about 85% of it together with the vocals.... lazy with skipping over the little bits between the hooks in each line.......she is still young......hopefully the ego will step aside and awareness of the vocal short comings will be addressed and limitations on instruments as well will induce her to put in more practice time. That said I still enjoyed show and she has the formula she has works well bridging the languages.
Your funny.full of shit,but funny.
Such a talented and beautiful woman is Carrie! When Jeff Bridges was touring decade ago, he wouldn't present her as a singer for a solo: it would have shown what a bad singer he was! He had the recognized name: SHE has the talent!
Great sound !
Thanks for Noche de Ronda...hadn't heard this since Julio Iglesias' version . The first two songs were also beautifully performed and to me seemed like corridos modernos
The guitarist is wearing a Goorin Bros. hat - made in Chicago and San Francisco -- beautiful hats.
😊
i like her music nice.
I like his guitar work. on the G6128T Duo Jet™ with Bigsby®, Ebony Fingerboard, Black
Everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom.
If I were President the first thing I'd do is invite Carrie Rodriguez to the White House to play a concert.
The first song didn't hold my attention but I'm glad I listened to the rest.
Muchísimo gusto señorita😊😋
Second song reminded me of Joy from The Civil Wars
Esto es Cool !!!! Me gusta !
Neat guitar she's playing....
Couldn't help but think that Llano Estacado would have been a great choice for a Breaking Bad scene
The violin part.... :O
Duende🤗
She is actress level beautiful.
That third song...
What's the name of the instrument she's holding in the first song? It only has 4 strings, so I don't think I could call it a guitar. It seems too high pitched to call it an acoustic bass.
It's a tenor guitar, very rare indeed.
It's a Tenor guitar. It's tuned at the same pitch as a Viola - a1d1gc, tuned in 5ths. Neko Case uses one too relatively often.
There's a lot of good reasons for her to use one - She already plays violin (and probably viola) so she doesn't have to relearn any fingerings for chords, and she seems to be a relatively small-handed person so the shortened scale length is probably an advantage too.
It doesn't help they sound damn cool too. I have a guitar tuned up like a cello right now - adGC (an octave lower than viola), and it's a lot of fun.
'FINE ART'! lm
Hear some similarities to Jose Gonzalez and Jason Molina
If cormac mccarthy had a daughter...
Is that a Bouzouki in the first two song?
It's a tenor guitar.
OK, Felix ... so what is the American fiddle tune she breaks into at the end of "Noche de Ronda"? I can _almost_ name it, but not quite.
Well, never mind ... my brain finally coughed up the answer. It's "Cluck Old Hen".
"So that's what I was doing last night ... . Oh, sh$$ ... !"
Their chemistry confuses the hell out of me
**claps**
Civil wars
*Mexican-American war
This channel needs a better sound system, or the artists need to bring a better system with them. Mics needs a bit of echo/reverb in them to not sound so flat
I mean it's kinda the point to have a single (or minimal) mic setup.
Could not disagree more
Lol don't ever try to get a job in recording
How about some auto tune as well? Sheesh!
