Always worthwhile to listen to Julia Holter. She's a really good musician, constantly moving forward, never repeating herself, getting freer with every record. The audacious type of artist. Great!

Love it! Have You In My Wilderness is definitely one of 15's best

0:00 Sea Calls Me Home 3:16 In the Green Wild 7:31 Betsy On The Roof

I love everything about her

That was a killer version of Green Wild. She's so cool and sincere and is always surrounded by fabulous musicians. 10/10 Great artist.

I would kill to see her live hhuhuhuhhu love you Julia Holterrrrrrrrrrrr

Fun Fact! Devin Hoff, the bassist, was actually on Tiny Desk before, way back in 2010 with The Nels Cline Singers!

Holter, like many of the other Tiny Desk artists, is quite quirky, but unlike the other Tiny Desk artists, she’s a serious, conservatory trained musician offering both performance and composition chops.

'In the Green Wild' is too sexy for this world.

same, except it's one of the most of-this-world things I've ever heard.

these versions of her songs are nuanced in a different fashion than the recordings, its almost as its gratifying to reinvent old things as an artist. who'd a thought

Her smile at 6:25 after she says the "lalala" part from in the green wild is so ADORABLE

In The Green Wild is properly hypnotic.

Holy wow i love her!!! those lyrics and compositions are mastery!

Loved the instrumentation and performance here. The warm subdued piano and bass.. the dragging drums... viola player doing a bang up job.. ornamentation and all.

Wish she played Feel You

This is great! All amazing players

Amber Dawn her music is seriously fantastic. It did take me quite a few months of coming back to though, in order to actually fall in love with it. Once you can follow and sing along to her melodies, it's wonderful.

Amazing! What a voice!

i feel as it progressed it got much better. sea calls me home was a little shaky, but betsy on the roof was awesome.

Thanks for awakening my spirit.

I like that second song. Regarding her singing style, it is very rare for something so different to be this entertaining. She is truly an artist. I like the bass player too.

Wow, the second song was especially incredible

I'm literally SPINNING...

She is babe, went to her London gig on Feb, it's amazing

6:22

so amazing

i love this. And i love the little writeup in the description box.

she's so great, her lastest album is very nice.

Wow!!! I loved her ... Why did I just discover her now???

So good

When I first heard this performance, over a year ago...all I did was play it on repeat...for months. Surprised by all of the comments. I thought it was great.

Wow. She beautiful

my god this version of betsy on the roof is even better than the clock tower one
