THIS THIS THIS is the reason I don't listen to radio anymore, very very very little few stations play music that worth to listen rather than hear . All the pop music, all the "moment billboard" top 10, has nothing against this . Thanks NPR for promoting so many great artists that otherwise I wouldn't had never know they existed. Listening this while on my lunch and I can't wait to get home to listen more .
I'm agree, a lot of music played are very bad (on Radio stations) and the question will be ... Why the radio stations only play several groups, several songs?. They repeat the music ill the day . We have a lot of new good music available, new groups also.
I am very lucky to be able to pick up a public radio station out of spindale NC ,wncw, that plays this music and alot of other great music you cant hear anywhere else. The mexicats, yo mammas big fat booty band, jj grey and mofro, samantha fish, and southern culture on the skids just to name a few.
I'm a Venezuelan now living in the UK, the second song makes me remember and miss the beaches of my country so much, driving and having fun with warm weather and sunny days, better times we had before the crisis started. Thanks for this Jenny and the Mexicats!
Recuerdo cuando mi banda les abrió en Tijuana por ahí del 2014-15, terminando el show me fui corriendo a acampar con unos amigos, tuve una noche de lo mejor, tocando a casa llena y terminando en medio de la nada, viendo las estrellas..
Imagine a nice restaurant with a large patio at the beach. In the sunset, Mexicat is playing for the dining guests there. Warm breezes and their music would be like heaven.
First i want to thank NPR and Tiny Desk team for allowing me to find new amazing artists. And then i want to say that Jenny and the Mexicats, Mon Laferte, Monsieur Perine and Natalia Lafourcade are FREAKING AMAZING!!!! I hope i ll get to see them live one day.... what an amazing group of true artists...
It's Monday morning. In my country it's autumn, a horrible day. It's a national holiday but I still have to work. I get out to have lunch. A quick and indigestible lunch. Later, when I finally got back to my house, I found an NPR notification about J & TMC ... I could end a horrible day smiling from ear to ear and dancing ... "A ella no le gusta trabajar..." :-)
I listen to this every day I still never get bored of the melodies and compositions, I don't understand a word of spanish but its divine!! music has no language barrier.. amazing band! everyone is awesome in they own way!!
If you like these guys give THe Cat Empire a listen, and let me know what you think! (They are very diverse so sample a few songs... live shows are amazing.)
I love to see women play the trumpet, trombone or any wind instrument! Something so cool about it 💪💪 I love that all of these musicians are 100% into their music. You can see they’re all fully invested 💕
What a great band. All songs are beautiful. But the song "The Song for the UV House Mouse" was wonderful! WOW! Jenny sang in a very special voice, especially the part sung in a low voice was something fantastic. I've never heard anything so beautiful. Congratulations! Great sound NPR Music.
I'm glad I fell for them on audio first; if I had seen them first I would never be sure my love was based on the music: Jenny is so pretty she melts me. I love the whole group!
This is a great performance, but, as usual, the real star is the audio crew at NPR. I don't know how you get the mix so consistently good in this setting, especially with a mix of acoustic and electric instruments and trumpet and vocals in the same mic, but keep it up.
to me they mix it great everytime so for me that's the standardl ( I understand they don't get enough credit and until I seen people giving them praise i didn't think too much of cause I feel like this audio setup is a standard (or should be) but obviously It's not cause it's an art in itself)... but for me the new band that came to play is still the star of the show...im nitpicking a bit sorry lol
Saw them a couple years ago when visiting my hometown of El Paso, Texas. They were awesome and certainly had the crowd on their feet and dancing. This performance shows their versatility from the big stage to a tiny desk.
Since it's a bit hard to make out the names Jenny says in the last song, the names of the performers are: Jenny Ball - Trumpet/Vocals Jorge Carlos Sapién-Garza - Electric Guitar Icho - Bass Santiago Ortiz-Betanzos - Percussion David Gonzalez Bernardos - Cajon Grant Jefferies - Piano Pantera Mexicat - Acoustic Guitar
Ö _ I saw them live in Tijuana, Mex. Got to meet them back stage for a sec. They were prett drunk and unengaged but they're awesome performers! I'm an OG fan of theirs and invite as many people as possible to love them too!!
I've been listening to this almost everyday during the COVID pandemic. Very happy musica! Get Jenny and the Mexicats back on soon NPR! Mucho Gracia 1....2....3... Caguama!
I discovered Jenny and the Mexicats with this video.I love this band so much. I never understood "a voice" as an instrument until I heard Jenny singing. I listen to at least one song a day but that usually leads to many. It's just so hard to stop listening. Every song is great. Long live Jenny and the Mexicats!
@@MM-111 ‘horn’ is very commonly used across the world to broadly label brass instruments, particularly trumpets. But of course, it is certainly not a bugle or French horn.
People shouldn't be allowed to be this beautiful and also this talented - leave something for the rest of us. Jokes aside this performance is so refreshing and exciting.
Love them, so unique, so different! What a mixture, wow! fun music, they are tight sounding. I can't imagine why anyone would give anything but a thumbs UP! What's not to love? They definitely put on a "show", they are professionals!
Love them! Great energy, they are super nice and talented!!! And she is an angel, yes. She can sing, she can play the trumpet and introducing the band is professional, respectful and nice! Thank you Jenny and the Mexicats!
Wowww que excelente presentación en este espacio de Jenny and The Mexicans y vaya que varios grupos muy importantes se han presentado, que chingon. MX/ES/INGL
Wow! What an incredible 15 minutes! I need to hear more from this band but until then, I will come back to this video repeatedly! The entire band was on point and a joy to watch and listen to. Thank you!
Thank God for NPR Music and Tiny Desk - it exposes you to so much wonderful and completely unexpected music. I've been playing music since the 1960s and it takes something really good to excite me. This is the ultimate feel good music - and Jenny is hot, to say the least!
Manu Campa No eran mis amigos ya habia escuchado una sola cancion de ellos, antes de ver este video, su musica y ellos transmiten buena vibra y eso me gusta :) ahora lo son jaja
I just love these guys, they're absolutely fantastic! We play them them at all our family barn parties, Now THERE'S a party until the sun comes up! Keep the music going!
I have been to 2 concerts already, it's a FANTASTIC vibe people, totally recommend going, I'd be there as many times as they come close to where I live.
What a fantastic group! Been listening to them since their first album. I'm excited about their current US dates and the increased exposure. TD never disappoints. I wish the group continued and greater sucess.
Just discovered this band today thanks to NPR. What a fantastic ensemble and sound! Jenny is a captivating and very talented frontwoman that is not overshadowing the band, their sound truly shines and comes together, very subtly, more than the sum of it's parts. Amazing audio as always, NPR!
f***en love this mix or beat, soul, and good vibes of the lovely world. love seeing a base of where lots can enjoy many, many skills on the art of instruments and the vocals ranging in many stars here.

This is why I love Tiny Desk Concerts. I would very likely never have seen this otherwise and my life was poorer before I had heard them.
A pretty Britt who plays trumpet and sings in Spanish with a Mexican band; this is waayyyyy too fun!!! Awesome!
Vivia en Mexico o otro pais que habla espanol. Yo creo
There is also Spanish talent
british mexican and spanish talent
MAAAAAAAAAANNN!!!
long cornet if I'm not mistaken
Tiny desk is the best thing on RUclips
This performance never fails to make me happy.
I am so jealous of that trumpet tone!
me too
Envious!!!!
I'm jealous of the trumpet, never mind its tone.
They are incredible Viva Mexico, Ole España (Mi Tierra), Go London
A huevo chinga!
De México, Madrid y Londres 🔥🔥🔥!!!!!
Me encantan.
Griss Romero Griss soy tu fan
Yo también soy tu fan!
Y de los mexicats
Porque de madrid si el.grupo es.mexicano y solo ella es inglesa?
betincb David (percusionista) es de Madrid
David (el que toca el cajon) es Madrileño. Ademas, formaron en Madrid.
Recuerdo cuando mi banda les abrió en Tijuana por ahí del 2014-15, terminando el show me fui corriendo a acampar con unos amigos, tuve una noche de lo mejor, tocando a casa llena y terminando en medio de la nada, viendo las estrellas..

I hope i ll get to see them live one day.... what an amazing group of true artists...
X2
Monsier Perine are Colombians and Mon Laferte is Chilean... Just Natalia is Mexican.
ugh yes Lafourcade blew me away as well.
If you like them, I recommend checking out Carla Morrison’s Tiny Desk concert
These musicians exhibit the sheer joy of making excellent music.
Great to watch!
I come to this sight to get my musical fix now. Thanks NPR for keeping real music alive.
It's Monday morning. In my country it's autumn, a horrible day. It's a national holiday but I still have to work. I get out to have lunch. A quick and indigestible lunch. Later, when I finally got back to my house, I found an NPR notification about J & TMC ... I could end a horrible day smiling from ear to ear and dancing ... "A ella no le gusta trabajar..." :-)
And by the way... Jenny... What a woman!!!
Music has the ability to turn any day around! Hope all is well, my friend
damnnnn 😆🤘 sigues !!
It's all been said below but I am blown away by the quality of the sound. Craziness
This might be my favorite concert from that tiny desk.
I listen to this every day I still never get bored of the melodies and compositions, I don't understand a word of spanish but its divine!! music has no language barrier.. amazing band! everyone is awesome in they own way!!
chetan pardeshi she sings in English too!
If you like these guys give THe Cat Empire a listen, and let me know what you think! (They are very diverse so sample a few songs... live shows are amazing.)
She sings about killing pakistanis.
I love to see women play the trumpet, trombone or any wind instrument! Something so cool about it 💪💪 I love that all of these musicians are 100% into their music. You can see they’re all fully invested 💕
Jenny play trumpet.
8:00 am wow this is wonderful 😍

Completely agree, thus must be one of the most under rated songs in the whole youtube
@@emens0450 You're right.
I'm jealous - they're having much more fun performing than anyone listening! That brings tears of joy to my eyes.
Thank you to all those great wonderful and creative artists out there. Your art makes this world a better place for sure.
Perfect to lift a rainy Bank Holiday in England! Thanks!
I'm glad I fell for them on audio first; if I had seen them first I would never be sure my love was based on the music: Jenny is so pretty she melts me. I love the whole group!
Was thinking the same exact thing. The music is awesome but its hard to keep my eyes off of Jenny. Shes 🔥🔥🔥
Why can’t I give it a like one more time?? I never get tired of this guys!!
I dont understand why anyone would give this a thumbs down.
Awesome musicians all the way around. However Jenny and her trumpet playing is out of this world!! Just love this band!!
This is a great performance, but, as usual, the real star is the audio crew at NPR. I don't know how you get the mix so consistently good in this setting, especially with a mix of acoustic and electric instruments and trumpet and vocals in the same mic, but keep it up.
+Jeremy Smith yea I'm always looking at their mics to see what they do and which they use. I love the KEXP recordings too, they also come out amazing.
to me they mix it great everytime so for me that's the standardl ( I understand they don't get enough credit and until I seen people giving them praise i didn't think too much of cause I feel like this audio setup is a standard (or should be) but obviously It's not cause it's an art in itself)... but for me the new band that came to play is still the star of the show...im nitpicking a bit sorry lol
it's called post-production
For real!
She never points the trumpet at her vocal mic. Great sound.
I lived for 2 years in Serbia. Somehow Mexicans und Serbs have a lot in common. Every Mexican should be invited to a serbian marriage. Crazy stuff.
Saw them a couple years ago when visiting my hometown of El Paso, Texas. They were awesome and certainly had the crowd on their feet and dancing. This performance shows their versatility from the big stage to a tiny desk.
Since it's a bit hard to make out the names Jenny says in the last song, the names of the performers are:

Esa morra tiene un ángel que no te la crees!! Todos tiran buena vibra y son excelentes músicos!
You don't find many jenny's in this world, what a brilliant combination of talents, thoroughly enjoyed this.
Interesting band, and she is so amazing speaks spanish like a native, and is so beautiful.
IKR!!!!
This band is really good and refreshing. Real music from real players.
Thank you for taking me way far from the boring mainstream. Amazing sound and originality
Saw them for free live in El Paso, loved them. They sound great live.
Jenny has buckets of charisma, and the music is totally fab. Love this to bits.
Incredible Vibe and energy from these!!! Immediately added to the list of people I need to see. They are living, breathing sunshine!
Ö _ I saw them live in Tijuana, Mex. Got to meet them back stage for a sec. They were prett drunk and unengaged but they're awesome performers! I'm an OG fan of theirs and invite as many people as possible to love them too!!
Ö _ yea they gooood, wonder where they got Jenny from.
Dont know why, getting the Moloko irish Vibe from her, just instinct,doesnt matter.
woody johnson they all met in Spain.
No doubt they would love the Irish music
Love that tone Jenny gets out of that trumpet. Gorgeous!
I’m always open to new music . Feeling this very much
These songs are timeless so good!
Uauuu, the perfect mix, espanol, english, world music is it...E olha que eu sou brasileiro e essa mistura me tocou profundamente. Virei fã.
Cosmopolitismo
That trumpet tone!
^^^
Or is it a cornet? Any brassists here?
Stephan Ainley it’s a trumpet. A cornet is shorter in length
yeh the tone is very nice! trying to find the notes.. i wanne play this too!
I thought the difference between a cornet and a trumpet was that a cornet has a conical bore where the trumpet has a cylindrical.
Desde la Patagonia saludos para todos: refrescantes, sobretodo la fusión en castellano!
I knew this would be fun just by the name of the band. Thank you NPR.
Qué bonito es to listen the combinación of dos different lenguajes at once...
Oh so tu tambien sabes Spanglish? That's no big deal entre nosotros los Hispanics in the US, amigo.
Damn, they're full of energy. And the singer is just gorgeous!
This is absolutely bat-shit crazy....and I love it !!!!! Thanks NPR, brilliant as always.
What a fun way to start the week!
Great comment.
Multicultural power rocks! Beautiful mix of talent and creativity.
its not multicultural when the cultures are practically the same ...
For such a skinny girl she has a strong voice.
@@reveu1 Spain, UK, and Mexico are practically the same cultures?
@@Cavball9 Christian western values.
found another fantastic band on NPR. impressive as always. thanks!!
You guys are fantastic....comme to France and we will worship you...
Mi amore that Jenny with her caguama.......just love it!!!
How could anyone not love this band!? They're just wonderful. They just make you smile and smile and want more! 👍👍👍👍👍
Espectaculares. From Spain, Mexico and England!
I've been listening to this almost everyday during the COVID pandemic. Very happy musica! Get Jenny and the Mexicats back on soon NPR! Mucho Gracia 1....2....3... Caguama!
Ahhh! Wish I could like this more than once! Me encanta la fusión
Wow. I'm loving this vibe. Just what we need right now as an antidote to the gloom of the world. Thanks Tiny Desk.
Thanks for bringing this fabulous group to Tiny Desk! First I've seen them, really appreciate the introduction!
I discovered Jenny and the Mexicats with this video.I love this band so much. I never understood "a voice" as an instrument until I heard Jenny singing. I listen to at least one song a day but that usually leads to many. It's just so hard to stop listening. Every song is great. Long live Jenny and the Mexicats!
Same here, I found them about 3 months ago and can’t stop listening to this great music. They are an amazing band!
They are incredible!!!!!! Especially love the second song! What a voice!
Jenny's tone on that horn is exquisite! What a totally unique band! I love 'em.
absolutely. the harmonies could use a bit of work though.
Agree, a great band.
But this is not a Horn.
This is a Trumpet.
Don't you see the difference between the two instruments?
@@MM-111 ‘horn’ is very commonly used across the world to broadly label brass instruments, particularly trumpets. But of course, it is certainly not a bugle or French horn.
Luv me some Mexicats! Go Jenny with your cool trumpet and swaying skirt.
Found so much good music thanks to Tiny Desk.
I have to admit, I clicked because of Jenny, but I stayed for the talent. Wow...
##### oooh alles wunderbare Talente -- danke Jenny und Kollegen ----danke auch an NPR Musik---viele Grüße aus Deutschland !!#####
People shouldn't be allowed to be this beautiful and also this talented - leave something for the rest of us. Jokes aside this performance is so refreshing and exciting.
such a fun group, and Jenny... lovely voice, terrific fun!!
Love them, so unique, so different! What a mixture, wow! fun music, they are tight sounding. I can't imagine why anyone would give anything but a thumbs UP! What's not to love? They definitely put on a "show", they are professionals!
I was convinced today's music totally sucks, but then I keep finding gems like this on Tiny Desk Concert.
Try kexp mexico!!
@@salazmiguel5542 a lot of good new music is coming from outside the US
Agree!! Exellent place to discover artists, I keep finding great new music to hear thanks to these tiny desk concerts.
Love them! Great energy, they are super nice and talented!!! And she is an angel, yes. She can sing, she can play the trumpet and introducing the band is professional, respectful and nice! Thank you Jenny and the Mexicats!

This was a quality performance by an excellent band. They deserve success.
What an awesomeeeee band and the lead singer steals the show... Absolutely!!!Loads of Love to you Dearest Jenny ❤️❤️💐💐More power to you 👍👍
** simple, clean and refreshing sound. GOD Bless
I'm literally clapping hands in front of my computer. GREAT band, GREAT performance, GREAT recording. Thanks Tiny desk!!!
Solo conocía una canción de ellos y me quede escuchandolos y 😳 que banda que sabrosa música.
Wow! What an incredible 15 minutes! I need to hear more from this band but until then, I will come back to this video repeatedly! The entire band was on point and a joy to watch and listen to. Thank you!

Kind of like the old KDKB in phx. The Bone Mommy was the dj. My introduction to "other" music.
Que contento y orgulloso de ver lo lejos que llegan mis amigos!
