Lost In The Trees: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
Музыка
Led by Ari Picker, who studied film scoring at Berklee, Lost in the Trees creates a cinematic blend of storytelling and strings. There's freshness and excitement to the music he writes, and that comes through in his arrangements of cellos, violins, tubas, French horns, guitar and more. Here, the band performs three of its new songs in the NPR Music offices.
Set List:
"All Alone In An Empty House"
"Song For The Painter"
"Time Taunts Me"

I've been listening to their stuff for a few years now, and I can't believe they didn't get more popular than they did.
This band being so unknown is truly criminal. Blessed I got to see them live.
Less than 50,000 views? It's just ridiculous when I think about their beauty and power to impress. Ari's voice and the orchestra and the lyrics make my tears well up in my eyes. They are such sublime and gorgeous people.
Almost 11 years later and this never gets old - so good!
They were great. Even all these years later, they were still great.
I miss these guys. Some music is haunting. This is straight up haunted. Love it.
'All Alone In An Empty House' is probably one of my favourite albums now. There ridiculously unique and awesome. Wish they would come to england! When i first got into them i couldent find any of there stuff anywhere!! why are they so underratted..
Still Watching This Today..I will probably never stop watching this. It was the most honest thing I had ever heard, and it may still be.
I'm digging Lost in the Trees. My first time hearing them. I love their mellow sound. I love you NPR Music.
I truly miss this band. I'll never forget making a cake for Emma's birthday.
I saw them in concert and it was probably the best performance i have ever heard. If they come to your town than you have to see them.
this is still my favorite thing of all time
cant stop watching this
I love you NPR! You have introduced my ears to such hypnotic music, and bands I never new existed!! Thank you!!
What a fucking unique talent. These guys are a gift. A refreshing mix of of modern and classical music. Seriously outstanding.
That last one, "Time Taunts Me" reminded me of the In Bruges soundtrack! That's a compliment... Awesome, I really like this band.
He sings like an angel. A sweaty, red faced angel.
one of the best concerts last year in atlanta. seeing them in a small bar where their sound just fills it was amazing!!
I definitely hear the film score sound in these arrangements. During "Song for the Painter" i could just imagine dramatic plot lines and memorable flashbacks being delivered during musical interludes. Something about the the xyliphone at 7:15 to 8:00 takes me back to my childhood. I'm not sure why a musical instrument would have such power...perhaps it's often played in dream sequences in popular film; or maybe it has a soothing lullaby sound that whispers calm to my remembering ears.
Listening to this on repeat...so awesome.
One of my favorite bands ever, and they broke up! I saw them live either 3 or 4 times though. That was awesome. Hope they're all well and still kicking ass.
OMG!!!! I love them so much. :) They are from my home state. They rock!
I was lucky to see them this summer. I was moved to tears. And I uploaded the whole show onto KZread, too. I REALLY hope they find more success!
Freshest voice in music. Their concerts are amazingly intimate. See them if you can.
They are the greatest band. No one has progressions quite like them. They are a rennisance in themselves
It seems spotify radio keeps finding me really cool artists. Just heard all alone in an empty house not long ago. Ari is a tomato
I just saw and met this band. So great.
They're quickly becoming one of our favorite bands
a very beautiful tune, and the lyric are very strong. i wish there were more bands like this.
Beautiful!
I get chills just thinking about this.
my jaw just dropped when all the instruments came in - omg these ppl deserve the world's view
this is great. Thanks NPR!
Just bought the album on iTunes. Thanks for sharing NPR!
You should invite them again!!! I love this group
love this!
wow... i cannot believe i JUST discovered this... amazing ensemble...
Thank you NPR
Gah, I LOVE LITT. :] So glad they came over to play for you guys! Talented bunch, they are.
They sound so similar to Horse Feathers...Fantastic. I'm glad there's more than one...
fantastic!
Time taunts me El Tiempo Se Mofa de Mi El tiempo, se mofa de mi Dice: “te estás haciendo viejo, te estás haciendo viejo” “¿Te estás volviendo más frio? ¿ Hmm?” Y una y otra vez, dudo quien soy Que final tan trágico. No sueltes mi mano Y hoy, te dedicare todo mi tiempo Puedes contar conmigo, pues luces tan cansado Y hoy, es el momento para descansar Sé que diste lo mejor de ti Así que pon a descansar tu adolorida mente Oh, oh
This deserves so many more views
I first new about the band because my cousin is the tuba player, but I have been of them all ever since.
Can't wait to see these guys @ LouFest this August.
The Best!
hallo leute!! bin kiffer aus leidenschaft! die mucke is einfach der hammer zum cillen leute! immer wieter so ich emfehle euch weiter daumen hoch
not 31,935.... they deserve muuuuch more than that - these arrangements are GOLDEN OMG
Ari and his voice composition can rocket with or without the orchestra its still Lost In The Trees. When i pop in this music for my grand kids in about 40 years i will be saying this is Lost In The Trees not reduced band from over 10 people of orchestra. As a whole from the first album put out to their last they will remain the same. Minus or Plus.
this gets my holy fuck award for the year.
Had me hooked at 0:10
Fantastic! is there an album, more than one, which one, need one...?
just omg
In a better world, Lost in the Trees would be the next Arcade Fire. Remember back in Funeral, when they had that sense of adventure and novelty? It kills me that Ari ended this project.
Ari picker goes to Flaming Lips concerts. Now is UBER Extra cool as hell.
I was just about to comment that, he must be crazy, he must be crazy, he must be crazy
Just saw them, they DONT HAVE STRING PLAYERS ANYMORE! but they are so good still
His voice is very similar to dan wilson's from semisonic... really good though i really dig this bands energy.
In "Song For the Painter" he sort of sounds like Regina Spektor
best part 0:00 - 17:12
Does anyone else think that the cellist to the far left in the black looks a whole lot like Charlotte Gainsbourg who played Stephanie, the love interest in 'The Science of Sleep'?
omg
Well, I was looking for modifiers. How about "Super extra cool". After all Super and Uber are related etymologically.
"All Alone In An Empty House" Desperdicie mi vida entera en ti Y te construí esta hermosa casa Para soportar tus críticas* Y he echado todos mis sueños a la basura** Y estoy siendo generoso aquí Estoy siendo tan generoso aquí Hay una nube sobre mi cabeza*** Estoy siendo generoso aquí ¿Y que quieres tu de mi? Sepulte a mis propios bebes Y vivo completamente sola en esta casa bacía Y he echado todos mis sueños a la basura Y estoy tan sola aquí Estoy tan sola aquí Hay una nube sobre mi cabeza Estoy tan sola aquí Así que atiendo el jardín, atiendo el jardín Atiendo el jardín, atiendo el jardín Construí la pared de roca ¿Qué estas escondiendo? ¿Qué estas escondiendo? ¿Qué estas escondiendo? Es algo sucio, algo sucio ¿Qué estas escondiendo? ¿Qué estas escondiendo? Algo sucio, ¿Dónde está el bebe? ¿Dónde está el bebe? ¿Dónde está el bebe? Tocaste al bebe, debes estar loca Debo estar loca, toque al bebe Escóndete en la torre, escóndete en la torre Escóndete en la torre, escóndete en la torre Para lo que me importa porque te odio tanto Y como te odio tanto Que me proteja la iglesia Como te odio ¿Nos vamos? ¿Vamos a irnos algún día? Tenemos manchas negras en nuestros ojos ¿Vamos a irnos algún día a ningún lado? Nunca fue mi intención lastimar a nadie Nunca fue mi intención lastimar a nadie No, hice hoyos a las paredes Pero nunca lastime a nadie No, nadie es perfecto Y nadie es perfecto Tenemos agujeros en nuestros corazones Nadie es perfecto
No :( no more string players, they have now melted down to a 5 member band and only 2 guitars 1 bass and keyboard and drums, they just recorded the new album like last week, but at the most recent show I saw they only played songs off the new album that is coming out very soon.
haha its almost as if his music hypnotizes him immediately after he begins playing....
can anyone explain the difference between the instrument the dude and the girl are playing? they both look like cello to me but the dude looks like hes playin a bigger one

I think they're both playing cellos. The foot pegs in the instrument might just be at different heights to account for the musician's frame/torso...
Could work. Still a bit shaky. But it's better.
Its just us, guys
i literally started hyperventilating... word cant describe....
0 dislikes....looks like nobodies ears have gotten lost in the trees
Yeah, but if you use "uber" in a sentence, it immediately counteracts the cool.
wow really. Im whats wrong with the internet? haha oh man. So i guess with all the rotating band members of The Temptations they should have changed the bands name each time. What about The Rolling Stones? Had many band member switches. Lets change the name. Eff the internet. You are whats wrong with the word, but its okay ignorant prevails. Just think about it.
