Amber Mark: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert

- The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit - stripped-down sets, an intimate setting - just a different space.
Bobby Carter | January 31, 2022
In her Tiny Desk (home) concert, singer-songwriter and producer Amber Mark expresses more than once that performing for the series is a "bucket list" moment for her. Upon our first meeting, she came with the concept for her performance entirely laid out. "The band is gonna sing backup, and we can cut to my family in the audience at the restaurant," she said. "We'll make it beautiful." With details that evoked excitement and nervousness all at once, the ideas felt massive to me. And what she delivers here is pretty grand, yet deeply intimate.
For her concert, Mark stuck to the script, shooting her session at Palma restaurant in New York, a place she's called home since her high school days. This Tiny Desk (home) concert is a celebration of her stunning debut album, Three Dimensions Deep, and is handled with the same intricate attention to detail as she did for the album itself.
The dimensions Mark explored on the project are what she calls "without," "withheld," and "within." We're taken with her on a quest for answers to questions tied to her personal struggles with self-doubt, loss and heartbreak. She starts her concert with "On & On," which carries us from the "withheld" portion of the album right into a revelation of inner peace in songs like "Bliss" and "Worth It." Mark also slows it down and plays "Waiting" from her 2020 "COVERED-19" series.

Her vocal agility, her raspiness, her range! She’s incredible
Props to the bassist for successfully finding a way to fit a double bass, synth bass and the Fender all on one track (on 'Worth It'). We see you fam.
🙏🏽
OOOO YES!
You saw that too?? You must a bassist. We pay attention to those things. :)
Shout out to you for identifying the bass section… who knew 🤷🏾♀️
Great spot... didn't notice it myself... but that's seriously cool.
The whole “Worth it” song has some sort of brazilian samba sound in it 🥰
Man, having everyone there, family, friends makes it more real. I feel like this is exactly why we want to make music.
so true
This is what Tiny Desk is about. Community, intimacy, love. There is so so much of all three of these ideals in this single tiny desk, and I think it's the most beautiful "at home" one yet!
💛
Agreed :)
She is the modern day Stevie Wonder mixed w a lil bit of Sade! Her music evokes such power out of your soul while remaining so sexy and chill. She keeps traditional sounding RNB alive w her modern sound❤️
FINALLY! An Amber Mark tiny desk. This womans talent is just *chefs kiss*.. Shes in her own lane!
Go stream her NEW album Three Dimensions Deep, which is out now🥺🤭
YES PLEASEEEE!
Oh look guys, word of mouth 👄 ok I will
Yo i *literally* made a "chef's kiss" comment about Amber Mark earlier today hahah. Great minds ;)
I literally just discovered her yesterday and was saying “ohh I need to hear her live” man god loves me
Yes he does 🙏💯
Same but in 2024 @macys just did a collab
Amber is therapy. Her topics are deep. Never surface level.
Agreed
I love the ending in which she has everyone dancing. It shows how Amber uses her music to bring people together.
This girl gonna take over the world. Man what an Artist she is.

I’ve been following her for the past few years and watching her obvious talent grow and evolve. Amber’s melodic phrasing sets her apart. Her new album is fantastic! This concert is so good! And those bass lines - fire!
Bass lines go crazyyy
The rhythm + bass line in "Worth It" are crazy good

I wish she would have done Monsoon. That song makes me cry every time. So moving.
cheers, mate
STOPPPPP!!! I HAVE HER SONGS ON REPEAT! Worth it, love me right and softly 😩❤️has gotten me though a rough patch… She deserves this! Thank you amber for making music that helps one heal and feel good! Also, anyone freaked when they heard her in insecure?!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yeah she really can do that well - her music helped me a lot in one of the most difficult situations of my life some 2 years ago - she's my favourite artist since back then and even more after the album - I'm very grateful and so glad for her! - she deserves this so incredibly much !!!!!!!
Insecure fan here. Love her…I just knew she sounded familiar. Excellent Tiny Desk performance! Very different from the usual format.❤️
@@Dyane629 I’ve found my people lol! And I agree with you 100%
@@marcelaperez4126 Yesss!! We are of the same tribe!!☺️❤️
i love her old stuff
Getting on Tiny Desk is when you know you made it!
This is soul music. You can hear her sing from the depths. Marvelous.
Shoutout to Mark Yoshizumi and Madeleine Campbell for one of the best sounding performances in the home concert series. Also Cale Hawkins tucked away in the back doing a great job as always lol.
I almost died when I saw this! It's my birthday and NPR is gifting me with one of my favorite artists!
The mix sounded incredible too.. And that scene with the fam dancing at the end is so wholesome 😫one of my favorite tiny desks
Finding absolute gems like this is why Subscribing to NPR is one of the best decisions I've made. Straight 🔥
Been following her since late 2016, it’s so cool to see her and her music grow to new heights with each release. The album’s awesome, go buy&stream it!!
Me too! She is talented as song writer.
Finally! Amber Mark is getting her due! She's amazing. "Competition" is my 2022 anthem.
i was so excited for her album and i couldn't be more proud of her
she's an amazing singer and this album is a huge way to start the year
can't wait to see her grow
wish she performed Foreign Things and Competition cause those songs was one of the best songs of the last year and one of the best songs in the album
LET'S GO AMBER, THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING
How did this Tiny Desk miss me , i love her so much , I'm seating listening and crying with joy
It didn't miss you, it was waiting for you :)
LOVE THIS! You can just tell how much she puts into her music. She is so great at making you feel exactly what she is feeling or seeing in her mind when she writes and I love it. She also doesn’t shy away from the less than savory parts of life like loss, grief, insecurity and heartbreak. But I feel like her music is the embodiment of “there is always a light at the end of the tunnel”. And don’t even get me started on how how her vocals stay smooth but she can go from delicate to raspy. Such a great grounded artist!
Monsoon
Amber Mark has always been legit one of my absolute favorite artists!!!!!!
SUFFERING FROM A BROKEN HEART? ARE YOU SO LOST YOU CANT SEE YOUR OWN REFLECTION ? DO YOU FEEL LIKE YOU’RE DIVING THREE DIMENSIONS DEEP? THE CELESTIAL AMBER MARK WILL TEACH YOU TO LOVE YOURSELF AND KNOW THAT YOUR WORTH IT.
Trade places with me for just a moment…
You are 22 years old, In the year 2022. Covid has officially been going on for 2 years in the USA as of this week. The second person whom you know you truly loved has broken up with you after dating for two years. He dumped you on your parents doorstep two months ago. You are are turning 23 on 03/29/22 And you are going to see Amber Mark’s performance at the Sinclair in Boston on March 28th, 2022

Your music is what’s keeping me alive right now Amber… all the numbers add up and all the stars have aligned. Thank you for making the hours go by and even though every minute kills me, I know that the healing and it’s just that healing hurts right now.

AMBER MARK has a special type of energy ~ down to earth, with open arms, and LOVE!
I've seen hundreds of performers live and they are rarely as good or better live than the record. She's one of the few that is! Incredible performer! Wow
Love this! Really wished we could’ve gotten some of the oldies from 3:33am and etc 🥺 but amazing show either way. Vocals undeniable ❤️
Glad she's getting her due. Monsoon is my favorite by her.
Wow, what a moment for Amber. This brought me to tears because her music and voice are amazing. She truly has been working at this for years. Experimenting with her sound, looks, and stage presence. This was a culmination of that hard work and it was beautiful. This is the true Amber and she is here to stay! Congratulations! 🥰🤎🤩
I've been waiting YEARS for her to get a tiny desk concert. Her music is phenomenal and I'm so glad she's finally getting this recognition 😭.Thank you tiny desk and thank you Amber Mark!

I could cry fr. Waiting is my fav song and how I discovered her. That song is so beautiful. Chills the entire time she’s singing it. We need an extended version PLEASE
When that bliss song starts it gives me strong Jamiroquai (Alright) vibes. Amber is a fire vocalist.
So many of her songs are about her mother who died a few years ago and they really get me 😭😭😭
Monsoon

How come her family doesn't know the lyrics!? They are supposed to be singing along, she is so talented!!! The world needs to know you, Amber!!!
The ending of this Tiny Desk episode makes it one of my favorites. That family vibe really comes through in Amber's performance.
probably the most balanced vocal performance I've seen on Tiny Desk

OMG.... I can't wait to see Amber on Saturday....
One of the most, if not THEE most, sensual and captivating Tiny Desk performances. Ms. Mark is dynamite and this vibe..hits. ❤❤❤
Oh my goshhh! I love how Amber Mark's speaking voice is in the same register as her singing voice! I haven't really heard alot of artists like that. Makes sense why it sounds so smooth.
I don't clicked on this one because it had a lot of views, and I'm happy that I did. "Worth It", is a funky track with great vibes.
She did waiting. She was asked of so many times on her ig lives and then she delivered on tiny desk. Thanks 😁 Ms Mark
I’ve been rocking with her since Lose My Cool and it’s AMAZING to see her growth! She ATE on this album! 💘
Congrats on your album Amber. Been a follower of yours since "Way Back". Love your music and artistry. You're an original. 💕

"On and on" is for me the song of the year!
I've never heard of this young lady! She is amazingly talented! Gorgeous too!

Check out her tune "What If" from a few years back.
She merges so many elements like bringing Motown soul rnb with her own originality vibe & that voice is so honey smooth I’ve said too much
Such an amazing artist, super poetic. Listening to her makes me feel so safe, you can hear how deep her lyrics run in her voice. I love it!
Amazing!!! Last song was a killer! Great vibe and great way to end a set;
