Phoebe Bridgers Takes Tiny Desk to the Oval Office

Ever wonder what it would look like to have a female president in the White House?

Well, Phoebe Bridgers gave us a great idea with her performance on NPR’s Tiny Desk At-Home concert.

Bridgers swapped her iconic skeleton onesie for a suit and played her set positioned in front of the iconic Resolute desk. Meanwhile, her band was dressed in the signature Secret Service uniforms of a black suit and tie, a white button-down shirt, and shades.

They performed “Kyoto,” “Moon Song” and “I Know the End.”

“Thanks, guys,” she said after “Moon Song.” “I’m Phoebe. Hope everyone’s enjoying their apocalypse.”

Similar to the break in the “I Know the End” video, there’s a bit of a switch in this performance that reveals that the band was standing in front of a green screen. After Bridgers switches guitars, clips of fans singing “The end is near” and a long-drawn shriek at the end of the song pop up on the screen.

Bridgers isn’t the first to take Tiny Desk to another level. Last month, Billie Eilish and Finneas performed in front of a recreation of the show’s HQ.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
