Being in the woods away from dense cities is the best place to be away from the virus. The plants have almost infinite surface area the virus drops to the ground as do all particles when the air is ionized. And the wind disperses a cloud of virus making it less likely for people to get a high viral load. The sun kills bacteria and virii.. The best place to be is in nature.. Most of the people dying from this are in close nit communities and mostly in dense tight living spaces like in manhattan, where every square foot is a commodity. This virus is going to make people spread out. One of the most densely populated cities? Hong Kong, all the apartments are jammed full of people, some apartments have people subleased into cages inside the apartments because the need for space is so great.
If I could make a wish. Just the right amount of success to make money singing awesome music, buy a house, retire comfortably, to do exactly this with my favorite person.
Something tells me that even without the Tiny Desk appearance or any public success, these two would still be making music and having just as much fun together. Love it!
These 2 make it look so easy to make music in your living room. He's just chilling making simple beats. She's just dancing and singing and having a good time. Sylvan Esso!
Their first concert was one of the shows that helped me fall in love with Tiny Desk to begin with. I hope everyone swayed like seaweed in Ursula's cave while listening.
Makes so much more sense now lol…I thought she said “seaweed in a earthless cave” Between the shattering of my mind from experiencing their music for the first time there just weren’t enough pieces left to unpack how you could have a cave with no earth, let alone one with seaweed inside
I love that they must have performed all three of those songs a thousand times before, and yet they still seem so completely immersed in the moment and rocking out. Great stuff!!
I saw them in Knoxville a few years ago on their What Now tour!! I bought a single ticket the morning of the show, and it was one of the best nights of my life
So happy this has happened. Sylvan esso has blessed us with 2 performances, 1 beautiful film, and entire live album during quarantine. Thank you guys for keeping me sane.
Her voice is so crisp and clear... sounding just as good sitting in their living room as it does on the album. And I've been listening to their music for at least 5 years (Coffee was the first song that caught my attention I think) and I never knew they were from right around the corner in Durham, NC! I like them even more now. :)
First time to ever hear your music and I'm from South Africa so I've never been exposed to this type of sound. I believe you guys will change the world with your music, the first joint was life-changing.
Drummer of 25 years here and a huge fan! Missing your show in StL because I help care for my disabled nephew now or I’d absolutely be there! You guys are amazing and an inspiration no doubt. One day I will see you all live and check it off my bucket list. Until then I’ll be vibing to your beautiful music every day! Thank you for keeping me sane during quarantine in the past and still moving me with your music to this day ❤ much love
I can't forget how I came across them originally but i gotta say, one of the most inspiring voices. sound is so different. her voice does something to me (in a good way).
I love how they have probably sang this song hundreds of times , yet that first smile from him is like it’s their first time 🤍 . And she’s a cutie with a light so bright . Blind meeeee👊🏼 shine on
Their first TDC for NPR was so full of this loving energy between the two of them that I became a fan right then and there. They look like they are on the same wavelength and they are so excited to ride it together. You cannot help but smile. Thank you Sylvan Esso. Thank you NPR.
Loved thier original Tiny Desk Concert, one of the best of all time. This, from home TDC just makes me smile, the very essence of Sylvan Esso. So simple, so pure, so clever, so talented so loveable.
I only found out about Sylvan Esso via Tiny Desk and I loved their stuff right away. As someone who cut their teeth on Kraftwerk and OMD, Thomas Dolby and Jean Michel Jarre, I've always welcomed fresh, energetic new electronica content. This was a blast to watch. Especially Radio. I really appreciated that new Tiny Desk (home) concert.
I think part of it is that they don't need a super in depth mic setup to record. All they need is one decent microphone. They probably don't have to worry too much about echo either since they just need to record her voice rather than the sound of the room.
I found them through their first Tiny Desk and they have held a special place in my heart ever since. Just waiting for them to tour the UK and I'll be happier. This session is also very lovely.
I don't usually listen to music like this, but I've always been very impressed with everyone in Mountain Man, and Nick Sanborn's production works magic accompanying her voice.
Both albums have been my go to for every sleepy driving time, always when I run, and for naps and bedtime for the babies. It started with Lucian after birth(2016) and now my Lucian and Lola are 2 and 4 and we all are listening faithfully
My god how much I love these two. So much joy when they are jamming. Thanks NPR, their first appearance on Tiny Desk made me fall in love with them, this one just makes me grin from ear to ear !
The first Sylvan Esso concert I went to is still one of the best I've ever been to. COVID sucks but it will make the next time I see them all the better
I first discovered them like a month ago in quarantine - I was watching the Tiny Desk from several years ago. Lo and behold, another one!!! Her voice is carrying me through these rough times :)
Saw them at red rocks, it was amazing, so good live. I just got a little sad watching this and not knowing when we can go to live shows again... At least I live by one of the world's greatest outdoor venues (Red Rocks) as they will probably be able to hold shows sooner.
💛 Please take me back to Eaux Claires 2015 on a sweaty summer day under a tent with these two lovely folks and so many others shoulder-to-shoulder dancing
Found these two a year back from, you guessed it, NPR tiny desk and now rockin to their vinyl. What an eclectic and in tune band and couple. Her first group Mountain Man is pretty solid too.
The simplicity and soulfulness of your music makes me weep for all the things that could have been. Your music is a gift and the candor of your performance exudes the very spirit of why music exists. I love you, Sylvan Esso!
'die young' might be my favorite love song of all time. "I had it all planned out before you met me, I had a plan, you ruined it completely... I was gonna die young, now I gotta wait for you, honey"
I literally just discovered this beautiful sound in the middle of the night! I'm grateful for finding new amazing artists! I couldn't wait for this notification.
Sylvan esso opened for a band in Indianapolis years ago, and I've been in love ever since. I don't even remember the main show, they ended up fully impressing me and put on such a fun show!
blessed by this queen and king while i sip on hot fennel tea, wash the dishes, n wait for my almond milk yogurt, lemon bundt to finish bakin in the oven . 🍋🥰
That voice...........I hope she takes it somewhere beyond that couch. A beautifully, explosive, expressive instrument. Looking forward to the next step.......
Thank you for recording what you could. People here in the comments are complaining but not understanding and appreciating the time you took to do this because in reality you didn’t have to. Thank you
![Sylvan Esso - Die Young [OFFICIAL]](/img/1.gif)
Me forty seconds ago: "I've literally never heard of Sylvan Esso"
Me now: "I absolutely love Sylvan Esso!"
Same
You might also like their live Tiny Desk!
You should most definitely watch their in studio tiny desk concert, it's one of NPR's top viewed on here.
This was me with their Tiny Desk. Now their S/T is one of my favorite albums released in the last many years. They're so good!
Me now: "Woops I now own their entire discography on vinyl."
Their first performance with tiny desk is still one of my favorites. Their energy is so infectious.
Really, I need to look that up
First thing I saw on Tiny Desk and still one of the best.
Their first tiny desk is how I discovered them. So agree with you!
No phone call from Dad this time. What an omission!
@@johndjameson Lol
You can tell he might be the happiest guy on Earth... quarantined with his electronics and the woman he loves.
Simple tastes breed simple pleasures :)

Are they a couple?
@@stevefisher2553 yes married I believe
Something tells me that even without the Tiny Desk appearance or any public success, these two would still be making music and having just as much fun together. Love it!
Imagine being their neighbor, hearing this and yelling for them to TURN IT UP!!!!!! 😁🙌🏾
They would be dope neighbors to have!
I would be creeping them out dancing along the property line
@@shumeister1059 My friends live across the street from them. No lie.
@@djbost1 Maybe have them point the speakers outwards, and you can have a dance party... err, social distanced, mask wearing dance party.
He is always looking at her and smiling.
Married, happy and making music, living the dream.
@@IamAvidity Ah yes, the life!
Wouldn't you? :DDDDDD
yeah she is cute
Sylvan Esso? Instant click
Instant click? Instant like.
Yas!
Every time
Klik NÖW ...please.
💯
Will never get over her voice. I just really like it a lot!
And also their energy ❤️
you might like Mountain Men then (her old group or they might still be active kinda)
her voice reminds me of regina spektor
These 2 make it look so easy to make music in your living room. He's just chilling making simple beats. She's just dancing and singing and having a good time. Sylvan Esso!
Their first concert was one of the shows that helped me fall in love with Tiny Desk to begin with. I hope everyone swayed like seaweed in Ursula's cave while listening.
Omg I remember that. She's adorable.
Yeah, it was my first Tiny Desk. Amazing.
Makes so much more sense now lol…I thought she said “seaweed in a earthless cave”
Between the shattering of my mind from experiencing their music for the first time there just weren’t enough pieces left to unpack how you could have a cave with no earth, let alone one with seaweed inside
I came here for the seaweed and got a new concert!!
I love that they must have performed all three of those songs a thousand times before, and yet they still seem so completely immersed in the moment and rocking out. Great stuff!!
If I could see one concert after this pandemic is over, let it be Sylvan Esso!
i’ve seen them about two years ago, best experience i’ve EVER had
I've seen them twice now ... looking forward to the next time they come to Austin.
Dude, I saw them at Disney Concert Hall in LA. Such a chill band. Very special live. Keep a look out for concerts in your city!
I saw them in Knoxville a few years ago on their What Now tour!! I bought a single ticket the morning of the show, and it was one of the best nights of my life
They were my last concert *before* the pandemic, here in Durham, NC.
So happy this has happened. Sylvan esso has blessed us with 2 performances, 1 beautiful film, and entire live album during quarantine. Thank you guys for keeping me sane.
What is the film?
Where can I find the film? Is it streamable?
Kae Falcon The WITH documentary on RUclips. Checkout their channel!
Jay Brown WITH - it has live performances from when they had a 10 piece band with them and they share their thoughts on the experience. It’s lovely.
Her voice is so crisp and clear... sounding just as good sitting in their living room as it does on the album. And I've been listening to their music for at least 5 years (Coffee was the first song that caught my attention I think) and I never knew they were from right around the corner in Durham, NC! I like them even more now. :)
So bummed they didn't play coffee
Durham puts out some great artists.
at 4:10 she sings "bathing in the red glue breen" instead of red blue green and just laughs and keeps going haha awesome
Eyes on Breen, look it up
So cute
I just noticed that - that's awesome. She totally cracked herself up.
Good spot - lovely!
0:00 - *Die Young* (3:38)
4:08 - *Rewind* (8:14)
9:16 - *Radio* (12:41)
Thank you, Pentameron :)
@@lisasnotes Glad to have helped :)
Oh thanks Man! I was looking for this!
really cool to see them do a live set with a modular synth, not easy
Wow. These two human beings and their dynamic and music has just changed my life!!! THANK YOU XX
Thanks for watching!
I'm obsessed with this version of "Radio".
The distortion at 11:18 that lingers into the verse!
And that amazing vocal improvisation at the end ❤️
First time to ever hear your music and I'm from South Africa so I've never been exposed to this type of sound. I believe you guys will change the world with your music, the first joint was life-changing.
I’m loving Amapiano from South Africa right now
These guys have just grown and grown on me. I love the simplicity of just two folks; it really helps to lay their talent and artistry bare.
I swear listening to these guys IS my happy place
Wow. The energy they gave to us, the energy they gave to each other. Thank you, I needed this concert in my bed.

This Tiny Desk is what introduced me to Sylvan Esso. And they're now one of my fave bands!
that's my kind of dancing: while sat on the sofa
Her voice is so flawless.. radio is so boppin I love it lol
I can't forget how I came across them originally but i gotta say, one of the most inspiring voices. sound is so different. her voice does something to me (in a good way).
partial gear list if it helps anyone
thank you! my boyfriend asked if I could scroll and see if anyone mentioned which Roland that was lol didn't have to go far!
I came here for this. Thank you.
I miss my Roland kit
Thank you! I was wondering!
Wow dude, I have no idea what these mean (synthesizers?), but I'm super impressed with your knowledge!!
Keep coming back to this. I love it!
Amelia is one of my favorite singers. and Nick brings the noise. Incredible band.
I love how they have probably sang this song hundreds of times , yet that first smile from him is like it’s their first time 🤍 .
And she’s a cutie with a light so bright . Blind meeeee👊🏼 shine on

Counting the days til they get the Grammy! Their music means the world to me and so did this tiny home concert!
"Die Young" is a BOLD choice for a first song from a quarantine concert 😬
lol yep
Only if you're not feeling it
It’s about giving up on suicide.
Still sounds good no matter where their at.
(They’re)
I think part of it is that they don't need a super in depth mic setup to record. All they need is one decent microphone. They probably don't have to worry too much about echo either since they just need to record her voice rather than the sound of the room.
@@estevanphillips6889 no, they have misplaced their at
Anders Ledell That's what I was gonna say. This kind of stuff, you can record literally anywhere.
I found them through their first Tiny Desk and they have held a special place in my heart ever since. Just waiting for them to tour the UK and I'll be happier.
This session is also very lovely.
Wow... that looked like so much fun. Sounded absolutely amazing
I don't usually listen to music like this, but I've always been very impressed with everyone in Mountain Man, and Nick Sanborn's production works magic accompanying her voice.
Heard coffee and was hooked ever since
Both albums have been my go to for every sleepy driving time, always when I run, and for naps and bedtime for the babies. It started with Lucian after birth(2016) and now my Lucian and Lola are 2 and 4 and we all are listening faithfully
My god how much I love these two. So much joy when they are jamming. Thanks NPR, their first appearance on Tiny Desk made me fall in love with them, this one just makes me grin from ear to ear !
Synth god! Vocal goddess! Magical amalgamation of human talent!
Why would anyone dislike this??
I saw Sylvan Esso at the Laneway festival in Auckland, NZ a few years ago.
Highlight of the day, honestly.
Her voice over the electric sounds just make my mind melt... Perfection in my ears!
The first Sylvan Esso concert I went to is still one of the best I've ever been to. COVID sucks but it will make the next time I see them all the better

Seriously the best.
I love these two so much, thanks tiny desk.
Thanks for watching!
I love that Radio is almost exactly 3:30 long.
Its exact on the record
Last couple days had me pretty down but this got me up.
Found these two a year back from, you guessed it, NPR tiny desk and now rockin to their vinyl. What an eclectic and in tune band and couple. Her first group Mountain Man is pretty solid too.
they’re always pure and honest art. just stunning.
That last 30 seconds is exactly what they should never lose. Wonderful! :)
Her voice ❤️
His beats 👌👌👌

Chef's kiss
The simplicity and soulfulness of your music makes me weep for all the things that could have been. Your music is a gift and the candor of your performance exudes the very spirit of why music exists. I love you, Sylvan Esso!
That first track... So absolutely perfect guys! Love where it's coming from - home
'die young' might be my favorite love song of all time. "I had it all planned out before you met me, I had a plan, you ruined it completely... I was gonna die young, now I gotta wait for you, honey"
I literally just discovered this beautiful sound in the middle of the night! I'm grateful for finding new amazing artists! I couldn't wait for this notification.
So cool to watch them playing with the synths and drum machine
Sylvan esso has saved my life multiple times
This is exactly what I want...not just lyrics, but how happy they are...together, creating
She has an amazing voice!
One of my favorite bands. Got to see them in Dallas a year or so ago. Amazing show. Such amazing synergy. Love Love Love.
Sylvan esso opened for a band in Indianapolis years ago, and I've been in love ever since. I don't even remember the main show, they ended up fully impressing me and put on such a fun show!
this old guy, Led Zep era, so happy to continue bearing witness to this fabulous collaboration. you two rock, great stuff
Perfect start to this Thursday morning.

Go Durham! Wish I was their neighbor! Cool weather with the windows open and jamming to this.
This is the best vibe and feeling I've gotten in a long time I feel the happiness and love
didn’t realize til i watched this and saw her singing to him that die young is about him. such an emotional song🥺
?
Nvm I got it!
That voice...........I hope she takes it somewhere beyond that couch. A beautifully, explosive, expressive instrument.
Looking forward to the next step.......
Finally some good quality recording from home, nice
I can't love these two enough.
So lovely so talented.
What a cool synthesizer!!!!
Wow. Revisiting. How’d I forget this? Wow.
Amazing set! All my favorites and I woke up and danced to it all. Thank you so much with love from FL
Hi, FL! Glad you had a great start to the day!
Such quarantine goals. Love Amelia’s energy all the time!
Merci pour ☀️ je vous adore!!!
Thank you for recording what you could. People here in the comments are complaining but not understanding and appreciating the time you took to do this because in reality you didn’t have to. Thank you
"burning in the red glue breen" and she STILL killed it ugh her power
I love. Thank you for being!!!
one of my favorite artists ever!!! slack jaw is my fave
Omg the bass on radio is vibing my brain like I never thought possible
I love every second of this video
The first Tiny Desk (Home) Concert and still one of the best! I replay this all the time
Sun is shining, lunch is ready and Sylvan Esso on NPR, perfect!
Sounds like a lovely lunch break!
She's so cute dancing on the sofa. So fun! ♥️
