Standing on the Verge

Today in NYC feels like one of those days back in Providence where spring would poke its head out just to remind you it exists, even if only in the future.  I think it was summoned, as always, by our collective resignation to winter's eternity.  Spring is real and you deserve to know.  And it is in this moment, as the world stands on the verge of getting it on, that I wanted to share a Tiny Desk concert I stumbled across last month.

I imagine most people here have seen quite their fair share of Tiny Desk shows.  If you haven't, I recommend watching another one before this to see the contrast.  While most performers take Tiny Desk as an opportunity to pare down their music to the minimal parts appropriate for an NPR setting, George Clinton & The P-Funk All Stars bust in like there's 50,000 people in the room.

May we soak in the sun as it bursts into winter and P-Funk as it bursts into NPR.

Love to you all,
Nat
