Every single video involving Blind Pilot always has that comment on how underrated they are. Well let me just say it one more time; they are the most underrated band on the planet

Indie music is always better than “Lamestream” music

First time I listened Blind Pilot it was in 2009. I was walking in Lisbon and I heard a song at one store. I went to the guy of the store and asked who was playing. He said he had a random playlist and he didn't know, but the name of the track in the playlist was BLIND PILOT. I order their CD 3 "rounds and a sound". Until today, it's one of my favourite bands! It's part of my life!

After following this band for ten years, I finally was able to see them in concert (Seattle's Neptune Theater) last night. The layering of sounds was magical.

HIS VOICE IS SO SOFT AND WARM AND CALMING

Since it isn't already listed in the video, the names of the performers are: Israel Nebeker - Vocals Ian Krist - Vibraphone Ryan Dobrowski - Drums Luke Ydstie - Bass Kati Claborn - Uke/Dulimer/Banjo Dave Jorgensen - Harmonium

This is one of the purest things I've heard in a long long time. I love this band!

Yeah, I like grilled cheese too.

Blind Pilot, thank you. You've helped me cope through good and not-so-good. Your music inspires, the construction is beautiful and performance is incredible. I'm in awe, and eagerly patient to see the evolution of this band.

I am beyond excited that this has FINALLY happened. Blind Pilot is one of the best bands out there, made up of the most genuine people ever. Yay for a Blind Pilot Tiny Desk concert!

Literally the greatest voice ever

A person I dated in college played "The Story I Heard" for me on their accoustic guitar and i've been in love with this band ever since.

Yes, Blind Pilot has been killing it for years, & they still do!!

Saw these a few years ago supporting the Decemberists in Leeds. I love it when a support act who you didn't pay to see blows your mind!

As a licensed pyrotechnician in WA and Oregon that’s how I got my start as a kid in the 80s love this.

I can't even put into words my love of this band... So much love and fond memories of road trips I will cherish forever!

My most favourite band ❤️ so many memories with their beautiful music :) Love from Australia !

one of the most incredible bands ever. such a shame they dont have a million views like other npr tiny desks

Always thrilled to find out new bands and songs. And it has become a weekly thing with NPR!!!! Awesome!

+Calvin Huang I agree they have some great albums

This group is just brilliant, beautiful songs and sung from the heart ❤

I have watched 100's and 100's of these Tiny Desk Concerts over the years and when I see how sweaty the musicians so often are, wonder how the NPR employees stay awake in a office that seems a bit too warm.

This band is simply the true meaning of consistency - Three wonderful albums, with incredibly well harmonizaed songs! Nothing but love for those guys!! :D

This band is so pure and precious 💕

I saw them in Sacramento in about 2012. A friend invited me to see this group that i had never heard of. It was in a small bar, SRO, but i got to stand directly in front of the band. I was mesmerized and became an instant fan. One of my favorite groups of the Hipster Folk genre. Their first two albums are 🔥. Israel and Kati's voices blend like they were born to sing together. Like brother and sister.

I cant believe i forgot about this band! reminds me of 2009 :,)

I love these guys. They're so awesome at their concerts as well.

Perfection. I come back to this Tiny Desk Concert every few months just to hear Israel's beautiful voice and lyrics.

NPR never dissapoint me.

I love Tiny Desk Concert. I've found so many great artists here.

I think I listen to this 10 times a day

First time watching this video: "Who are these hipster jokers using a double bass, xylophone, ukulele and piano accordion?" 100th time watching this video: "Please stop breaking my heart with this perfect sound. Repeat."

this is the greatest of bands & music

i love this band & this performance & npr tiny desk concerts SO MUCH

love them so much.

My favorite band !!!!

Can't believe I get to meet them in February! ahhhhhhhh so excited. Favorite band ever.

yes!!! I was waiting for this upload!

Such an awesome set. They play together so well. They play as one :) It's beautiful

about 30 of these views are mine... these new songs come alive when the play them live. just like it should be. love this band.

You guys are truly amazing. I just have one request, if I may. I know you guys are gonna go big on mainstream one day. Please don't abandon or dilute your deep lyrics and style of music when you go big. You guys are literally a treasure and what you do is purely genius.

love them and how they've grown.

My heart cries to this... So beautiful. Thank you for existing

I am throughly enjoying this band! Thanks NPR!

Amazing. Only recently found these, what a great band

Outstanding!

A great way to start the day!

So glad they finally made it to TD!!!!! Awesome! Its been 3 years since I've listened to some Blind Pilot.

I love Blind Pilot so much.

Saw them in Tucson on 29 October and met Israel outside after the show. What a fantastic evening. :)

This is... magical

My new favorite

magical discover, thanks!!

Love this.

I'm also surprised it took Tiny Desk so many years to feature Blind Pilot but pleased you got them to come over for a set my current favourite folk band!

Great performance. NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert on it's best!

That was sick, I got some decent headphones on and I heard that pop before it happened.

Love your write ups

Tiny desk should just produce albums... there is so many cuts from these shows where I like the live version better than the studio cut

i really want to see you here in Victoria BC Blindpilot! I love and miss you!

this is music!

They were really good

THEY'RE BACK :D

💙⚡️Beautiful Music⚡️❤️

Back here in 2021 ❤️

Blind Pilots and The Honorary Title are such underrated bands

Man is das geil😍

V cut white tee shirt. No pretense, just authentic, refreshingly beautiful music.

Why have you stopped noting who wrote the description? (and date of performance) Am I to assume the author is the first in the list of producers?

None of them seem to be blind and I doubt any of them has a pilot license, nice sound though

Don’t you doubt, everybody has seen some winter, don’t you take the dark way out

One of the bands I would take to the grave with me.

yesssssssssssssssssssssssssss

💕

What a Heavenly sound, it sure doesn't take long to realise the greatness of this Man's voice, and indeed, the class behind. Superband!!!

💖💖💖

I like their older stuff more. Personal preference I know... but i thinks it's far superior.

@michaelmartin1099

I agree. I like their new stuff, but they definitely went in a more pop folk direction. Their older stuff was MUCH more interesting with respect to the instrumentation, and his lyrics were more abstract.

❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏

Nice .reminds me of River Whyless

Damn, loved the band. It's a blessing to discover a new amazing band every week, thank u NPR!! What album by them should I listen to??

11:54 or 16:21 ??? Vote for best wind instrument ever. Anyway, they are magnificent.

Anyone recognizes the mics they have on the xylophon?

matt peaks a badass

Yo, what is that piano that reminds me of a melodica with a bellows? Also, that tuner on his guitar looks dope af, anybody know what that is?
