Winner of the NPR Tiny Desk Concert Tour stops in Gwinnett

"Karen Dalton and Joanna Newsom melt together in the form of Gaelynn Lea and set about absolutely obliterating your heart."

-Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys)

"The way her voice resonates is so unusual and beautiful, like nothing I've ever heard before."

- Jess Wolfe (Lucius)

Gaelynn Lea, the winner of NPR's second annual Tiny Desk Contest, makes music like nobody else. Her sounds are steeped in the deep melodies of great Irish fiddle tunes, but her performance and singing style aren't traditional.

More than 6,000 artists submitted videos in which they performed an original song behind a desk of their choosing with the hope of winning a chance to play a Tiny Desk concert at NPR. Gaelynn Lea was the overwhelming favorite of the six judges.
