Description : Frazey Ford: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert From The Archives
We've been filming Tiny Desk concerts for more than 10 years. While revisiting our archives, we discovered that some of our earliest concerts never made it to YouTube!
Watch Frazey Ford’s Tiny Desk concert from 2010:

Ten years ago, I heard an astonishing voice stand out in a group filled with strong singers. The voice belonged to Frazey Ford; the group was The Be Good Tanyas.
The Be Good Tanyas released three outstanding albums — Blue Horse is still a favorite of mine — and then, silence. It's been four years since we've heard Ford's lilting, laid-back sound, but now she's back with a solo record. The album, Obadiah (which also features another Be Good Tanya, Trish Klein) follows Ford's love of rhythm and blues and traditional American country music.

Frazey Ford: A Soulful Return With 'Obadiah' Aug. 13, 2010
Ford came to the NPR Music offices for this Tiny Desk Concert — armed with her acoustic guitar and a cheetah jumpsuit — and lulled our office with four beautiful tunes. If you loved The Be Good Tanyas, like me, you'll be thrilled to hear her sing again. And if you've never heard Frazey Ford, you're in for a treat.
Set List:
"Firecracker"
"Lost Together"
"If You Gonna Go"
"The Gospel Song"

As one-third of the Vancouver alt-folk trio the Be Good Tanyas, dulcet-voiced singer/songwriter Frazey Ford enjoyed widespread critical acclaim and cult band status during the 2000s, later launching a solo career with 2010's Obadiah. On her own, Ford's music stretched into soul and R&B territories on 2014's horn-laden Indian Ocean, a vibe that continued in subtler measures on 2020's U Kin B the Sun.
