I was in Bakersfield and npr was good.

So very proud of my niece, Linda Diaz. From the day she was born, I waited hours for her in the waiting room. The nurse rolled her out and I saw this little pink bundle, I cried. I remember saying to myself, “wow, she has a set of strong lungs.” This rang true throughout life. My darling niece, I am proud of the beautiful woman that you have become. Continue to sing your heart out. Reach for the stars and beyond. You have always been a star. Shine bright my love.

NPR really has the best audio engineers ever. I always thought this cause I always thought people sound better when they perform there but how they handled this outside/windy concert just seals the deal! So impressive.

She has such a unique vocal quality. It's so tender that it seems like it's about to fall out of the note and yet somehow she powers through every time. It's such a delicate and precise voice. I love it. New fan here.

i literally was just thinking about how nice it would be to have a full linda diaz episode on here as i was revisiting her contest entry yesterday!!!!!! wow what a gift!

I found Linda Diaz from Spotify and I lost my mind when I found out she won tiny desk 🤩🥰truly a amazing artist

I fell in love with music again. I hope that makes sense.

green tea ice cream SLAPS!!! Thank u NPR for the introduction!!!

Not to take anything away from her soothing vocals but S/O to the sound engineers in this one.

I love her EP. As soon as I heard her on the Tiny Desk contest I became an instant fan! Big congratulations to her! 🤩

July 2024, still one of the best tiny desk concert, thank you Linda Diaz

Shoutout to the harmony, buttery smooth!

I love the color scheme. Even the amp matches!

I now want to be a sound engineer, geeez, what a piece of work they've put together

Clue is in the editing. At least two takes, at least one take with everyone solo performing . During green tea ice cream the drummers wind shield is missing from a shot, and during the last song one of his mics falls down, he doesn't actually need it since the rest of the song is only on one drum but his lack of expression means he knows that it doesnt matter what it sounds like as they already have the true master down.

Abrazos from Austin, Texas! Can't wait for y'all to experience the magic of Linda Diaz!

Congratulations! 🎉 I’ve been waiting for this one!

BIG congrats! Such a raw, light voice....

Congrats Linda!!! ❤️❤️

Sounds this good in that much wind?! Hats off to the singer, the band and the engineer!

That little girl can sang... Latino neo soul... Love it.

honestly, in 2020, i cannot comprehend how anyone would downvote this video. this is freaking amazing.

So amazing...I'm speechless.

She is stunningly beautiful!!! I'm in love with that voice and face. Their sound is so smooth and those lyrics!!!

Show them watch ya got again Linda Diaz.......love you cuzo

There's actually a fair bit of noise coming through in the mix. There're plugins these days that deal with noise pretty well, but you can tell that wind was just too much for the algos to handle.

besides the artists and the band, the visuals are goin crazyy

YES LINDA!!!!!! NPR putting the people on to this greatness! So angelic! Amazing team tooooo 🥺❤️❤️

These people and this music are beautiful.

Thank you audio engineers for doing your best during the very windy shoot...it was quiet but it was still very pleasant and easy on the ears

Yo that sound engineer is magic! Nice work

i had to come back to this. she's a star. when your humble you cant hide your shine.

This is probably the best Tiny Desk so far. The soft perfect outside environment, birds squaking and the band is dope. Live mix is incredible.

Wonderful set, it sounds somehow familiar yet very fresh. Congrats Linda and band! :) I love outside recordings myself, so you're winners in my book, just for the idea itself.... Kudos from Holland, cheers!

This was " nothing short of magic." I love the vibe. Thank you.
