鈥淚 finally made it to Tiny Desk,鈥� singer-songwriter excitedly declares during her performance. Her first Tiny Desk experience was a solo piano and vocal , which reflected all the meditative, sonic hallmarks of performing in isolation. Since her juggernaut debut album, Come Away with Me, was released in 2002, she has crafted intimate songs that showcase her beguiling vocals. In the course of building her genre-expansive catalog, she has racked up nine Grammy awards and collaborations with as varied a group as you can imagine, from and to and .
For her long-awaited in-person performance, Jones presents a light, breezy set of soulful tracks from her newest album, Visions, a collaboration with producer Leon Michels. 鈥淧aradise,鈥� a deceptively light and whimsical tune about letting go, begins the concert, followed by the contemplative 鈥淪wept Up in the Night.鈥� For the psychedelic 鈥淪taring at the Wall,鈥� featuring Jones on the guitar, drummer and bassist Josh Lattanzi lay down a fun, body-moving groove. To close her set, Jones turns to the title track from her debut album, disclosing that the tune was written only using the five guitar chords she knew at the time. Here she reimagines her classic, opening it up in a dreamy fashion.
