Clem Snide with Scott Avett: 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.
May 23, 2020 | Stephen Thompson -- Recording a Tiny Desk concert at home naturally subtracts a lot of familiar elements: Bob Boilen's desk, for example; the wooden shelves full of weird ephemera; the crowd of work-shirking news-gatherers and the applause they provide. But when Clem Snide (the three-decade-old project of singer-songwriter Eef Barzelay) and special guest Scott Avett (the Avett Brothers co-founder who produced and performs on Clem Snide's latest album, Forever Just Beyond) performed together in Avett's barn, they added a few new features you've never gotten to hear at the Tiny Desk - most notably a noisy flock of birds and the unmistakable cries of a nearby rooster.
We've had a few disruptive animals at the Tiny Desk over the years, from the occasional dog to Bob Boilen himself, but this had to be our first rooster. As for Barzelay and Avett, they not only maintained social distancing throughout their set, but also rigorously enforced it with the aid of a visible tape measure. Still, their voices blended warmly as they tackled three spiritually searching songs from the (great) new record, as well as an older track that fits Forever Just Beyond's themes perfectly: "Jews for Jesus Blues," from Clem Snide's 2005 album End of Love.
SET LIST
"The Stuff of Us"
"Jews for Jesus Blues"
"Some Ghost"
"Roger Ebert"

"A doubtless faith, is a dead faith." Beautiful!
The sound of those instruments unplugged is so wonderful! So often music is over produced and reworked. These COVID-19 quarantine recordings are making music come alive in these unprecedented times. Thank you very much for providing some joy for the day!
The measuring tape is hilarious. Love this. Sound quality isn't as good as at the genuine tiny desk, but it still has that rich Lo fi warmth and brilliant musicians. Great performance.
Please bring back The Avett Brothers to Tiny Desk!
YEP! WE NEEDED AN UPDATE!! THE LAST ONE WAS 9 YEARS AGO!
Man, making me get up from bed and look hopeful for the day, really needed that, thanks guys!
Agreed
Scott Avett gives me life 💙
Dad took me out of school early in the 9th grade (I was 14) to see the Avett Brothers in Atlanta. I proposed to my now fiancé at the Avett Brothers concert in Pittsburgh & we recently went to their show in Baltimore. So talented and I’m happy to be introduced to a new artist in Clem Snide. Great show, thanks for putting it on NPR.
Clem Snide's been making music since the Avett Brothers were in diapers though! 🤣
@@hacs42don't think he's that much older.lol😂
"But someone up there has a different plan" absolutely wonderful. Eef sings from the heart and I love it. Thanks guys!
I've loved Eef for so long. This is magical
Really my favourite music. Thanks so much
Scott's look at the end of "Jews for Jesus" is a smile-maker!! Great tunes, great voices, great playing and who doesn't love the occasional rooster crow!
Wow, Eef and Scott were not two guys I had really envisioned sitting down and jamming. But now that I've seen it, I get it. Great video!
A touch of sweet Heaven in that joined Harmony- and Acoustic excellence👍🇺🇸
What a wonderful surprise;we are so lucky! Thanks so much!
I first saw Clem Snide when he supported Ben Folds in February 2005, at The Dome in Brighton Uk. I bought his album after seeing him that night, and i recognised Jews for Jesus as soon as i heard it!
"a doubtless faith is a dead faith"
Amen to that
Great setting, I love the nature sounds stepping in the music. I love how there are all these initiatives to bring concerts to your home now and Tiny Desks has been doing them for so long.
I loved this. Roger Ebert is my favorite song of 2020 so far.

THANK you for this! A gift in lockdown for those of us missing live music so much. And what an epic album this is by Clem Snide.
These guys are amazing!
What a perfect acoustic duo. Love these vibes!
This might be my new favourite thing on the internet.
Thank you all for thes trying times thanks for the great notes we receive from you all every day .
thanks guys for the joyful music i always loved the avet brothers
You guys made me realize I like this genre... cool.
Excellent placement of tape. Sounds lovely. See these guys n the crew every year they come to Canandaigua, NY
I just tickled to see a tiny desk from some random shed on Scott Avett's farm!!
爽やかそして癒し心地良い
Excellent music to travel and clear everything from the mind, greetings from Buenos Aires Argentina 🇦🇷
That was so cool!
Thanks guys, beautiful lyrics and harmonies... love the organic vibe with the chicken blissfully ending the Ghost song :D
Thank you Clem for coming on Anirudh's Apocalypse Show on IGTV songs!
It's a treat to see you and Scott together!
Loved Clem Snide ever since i've heard them on an acoustic session for Austrian alternative station FM4. At the time he played a song that just came to him in the taxi en route to the studio.
That measuring tape....
Thanks for transporting me above the pandemic. It took me way too long to figure out why there was a tape measure stretched out!
Thank you ..great playing and singing!
Beautiful
That rooster provided the right amount of levity.
🐔🐓🐔🐓🐔🐓🐔🐓 @11:07 perfectly in tune 🤣🤣🤣
Love your humbleness.....s
Love it. Love the setting. Love the measuring tape. LOL
I love their song "The Meat of Life".
The new album is fantastic.

A doubtless faith is a dead faith🌿
Nice my friend 👍🎵💕thank you so much and hope you have a wonderful weekend 🙏😊💕💖🎵
Takes a lot of guts to take the lead like that with an Avett. Well done Clem. :)
big vibes!
Sounds even better with the roosters.
wunderbar
I want to look like Scott when I'm 43
Scott Avett singing backing vocals is like Klay Thompson passing up the 3pt shot for me to take it.
woah
Reminiscent of that great duo Simon and Garfunkel
Nice
New fan from Denver! Clem, I hope to see you live one day! And who is that Scott guy?? I think he has potential =)
Scott Avett. He’s in a band called the Avett brothers. Incredible people and great musicians, you should definitely check them out
Dear, you're in for a treat with The Avett Bros.! Swept away was the first song I heard from them over a decade ago.
Harmonies 6 feet apart.
Great harmonies. What are those little guitars? Would be easy for my little hands.
The reports of Eef’s demise are greatly exaggerated! Gentlemen please bring that show on the road. Safe quarters are guaranteed in The Colorado foothills! Joe’s house.
What a happy accident. Just browsing and hit these guys I hear never heard of before. Not perfect but bloody marvellous anyway.
Does anyone know the chords for the first song?
Which guy is which? And what instrument is the guy on the left playing in the first song?
Is there a way to buy Tiny Desks? It could be a good way to raise money for a cause..there at least 5 I would buy.
@anynone is that a big ukulele?
What's with the tape measure on the desk? You boys just seeing how long you're gonna be?
Does anyone know what Scott's instrument is called when he was playing "Roger Ebert"?
Ukulele? Soprano guitar?
Baritone ukulele I think.
I really need to go to sleep
Who's the guy on the left?
Hi nelson
Sorry I mixed them Up my Bad
Casual dudes
is it wrong to say,,,,,,,,the head shaking ruined it for me......lololol...
Since When is Scott a south paw???????
He's not, Eef is.
Whose chicken is that?
What was with the face shake thing? lol
dood stuff
Thanks for uploading! If you have a second, I tried my hand at a cover of Little Big Town. As a fellow music lover, I'd love if you'd take a listen. It's on my channel. Hope you like it!
Thanks for sharing. If you have a second come check out my cover of The Lumineers - I'm an indie artist and think you might dig my sound. Really appreciate it!
Quit abusing that poor guitar!
I love them, but they are quite out of tune during the first song. Let's wait for the next ones.
It’s been 9 minutes, chill champ
Shut up dude. You're cramping everyone's style.
Good placement of the tape measure. Covers precisely the right hand and the soundhole. Nobody wants to see these, right?
Nice
