- This year, NPR Music is celebrating Black Music Month with an array of brand new Tiny Desk concerts - both from home and from behind our beloved Desk. Together, these artists represent the past, present and future of Black music. This month of carefully curated shows is a celebration of Black artists expressing themselves in ways we've never seen before, and of the Tiny Desk’s unique way of showcasing that talent.
Nikki Birch | June 3, 2022
A smile, laughter and a candle burning beside a delicate flower arrangement welcome us into the warm studio that is the set of James Francies’ Tiny Desk (home) concert. The young Houstonian and Blue Note recording artist begins with the hypnotic grooves of “713” - one of our picks for the best songs of 2021. This tune allows Francies’ virtuosic playing to shine, as he masterfully scales the keys during his solo. After a quick greeting, we’re whisked away by the luscious string ensemble that introduces “Rose Water.” Performed by vocalist Elliott Skinner, we’re lifted by Skinner’s voice as he sings beautifully of hope, support and growth: “I wish that you could see the light / That radiates in everyday…All the trials inside my mind / Shape me.”
Francies ends his set with “Sway/Freedmen’s Town.” The jazz trio plays while a recording of the voice of Francies’ father, James Francies Sr., tells the story of Freedmen’s Town, a historic district of Houston now known as Fourth Ward. It’s a fitting end to a Tiny Desk (home) concert that celebrates Black Music Month, a poignant and powerful reminder of how far we have come and what we still struggle against.

Everything this man touches turns into crazy diamonds. Sometimes I can't believe that he is real... that he is only human. Love him so much. 💖 And the vocalist with white hair is out of this world... All of these musicians are incredible.
I love Tiny Desk Concerts! I’ve discovered so many great artists and I’ve never been more satisfied with my Spotify playlists lol another great artist. Thank you for putting me on ❤️
Agreed. My playlist is very Tiny Desk heavy at the expense of the mainstream artists, and I like it that way.
I’m not sure I’ve ever heard a more beautiful song than Rose Water, my god!
it sure is a gorgeous song...I love it so much.
i wish it was an hour long! I felt sad when it ended!
When I say I love James Francies. TINY DESK. You never miss!! Not one bit.
Here because his rendition of Chaka khans”Ain’t nobody” is one of the craziest things I’ve heard in the past 5 years
재현이 브이로그 보고 와봤는데 좋타..!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ absolutely amazing
Wow, just wow. Thank you, NPR for this gift.
wake up people!!! this is genius level music writing & performing. WAKE DA FUQ UP!!!
I would listen to this song every day but a night before one of the scariest exam papers, I listened to this song and the words " late in the midnight hour God's gonna turn it around, it's gonna work in your favor" sounded like I heard them for the first time. At that moment I knew God got me in that exam the next day. And now I'll be graduating 🥺✨
I mean… you turned it around, it was all you, no one made it happen but you.
Never seen a jacked jazz pianist 👏
Hes from Houston :)
The guy from The 4 Korners is also jacked 😂
@@obedplayskeys and the J-Rod as well (4 Korners drummer)
Jeremy Dutton !!!! What a drummer.
Elliott Skinner is an absolute beast!! His control of pitch and timbre is just otherworldly. He reminds me a lot of Yebba, another James Francies collaborater and another of my absolute faves!
Absolutely
James is such a genius- I love to see him and his music getting recognized for what they are!
This is astounding. The colors of the music...the moods/emotion it evokes...the musicianship...all of it is ethereal. So glad to be introduced to James Francies, and thanks to NPR for giving him their platform to share his magic.
Found him through a friend who really tracks and finds great jazz musicians James is ONE I heard him in person @Blues Alley in DC in May 2019 w Chris Potter then Feb 2023 in Durham NC w Pat Metheny
He is so great!
It's jazz and beyond just wonderful!
Um... Wow! I have not listened to James Francies' playing before. Breathtaking! 🌸🎶
Love your voice Elliott Skinner 💙
Thank you 🙏🏾👏🏾❤️
they play with time so lovely on that first one.
I was so stoked to see Jeremy playing with you in this! So much love to you beautiful people! Magic!✨🌈💓
Wow didn't realize playing piano got you so jacked 💪 😁! Thank you James and his entire band for this, well played (a first time listener to the band)! Thanks as always to NPR for putting these shows on! Been a welcome distraction to the news.. Best wishes all !!
I first heard his music at Newport Jazz fest some years ago. Been a fan ever since!
Thank you again, Tiny Desk!
Saw him with Pat Metheny in a trio setting last year, my son and I were absolutely blown away!
Impeccable musician. If you have a chance check him out on that recording.
Agreed amazing performance. You would swear there is a bass player on that album but that is James on keys!
@@billstrohler
Yes Mr. Bill, exactly!!
I saw that band too in Olympia, WA, the first night of the tour. Amazing
Funky, Fresh and a cool breeze all at the same time....Weekend afternoon cleaning the house music...
This was amazing and Mr. Francies is even more impressive live ... I'm a fan and love that we get to experience his talent in the privacy of our homes as we celebrate Black Music Month 2022. What a gift! Thank you for sharing him with us here!
The whole performance is fantastic. Rose Water is an incredibly beautiful song.
Now there's two songs I love called Rose Water!
Rose Water... So FREAKING and softly... great. 🥺
Rose Water is just fantastic
素晴らしい！！！👏👏👏すごく癒されました！素敵な音楽を届けてくれて、ありがとう☺
재현아 나도 이제 밥먹을 때 이거보면서 감성적인 사람이 될게🤭
I saw James earlier this year with Pat Metheny on the SideEye tour..his virtuosity was impressive and quite refreshing 👍👍😄😄
Thanks James 🤝🏻
Desde España, agradezco que sigan habiendo artistas como ellos, creando piezas musicales de verdad, en plena época del desapego al arte de la música. Gracias.
That second track was just 🤯 gave me so much chills ❤️ thank you guys!🙏
Such a Beautiful gift! 🎁 💖
Gorgeous!❤️
yessssss----the talent! Great start to my day
Each and every artist who contributed to this concert is incredibly talented ... I wish I had another word.
This version of Sway is AWESOME☺
The part where they go into that swing chorus (?) is so inventive. I have the album in fact both of his albums look forward to many more ❤
Man, I can only imagine James working on some jazz-influenced material with Tyler, the creator. I just think that'd be dope. I loved seeing him live twice playing with Yebba during the JM tour. Amazing talent.
Respect your idea but honestly lol I hope we don't hear tyler material lol
Tyler's "art" doesn't deserve to be in the same room as someone this great.
What did Tyler do to you guys? You can feel the hate through a KRplus comment. Chill out, it’s called a personal opinion. :)
@@diogoreis3008 Same, i'm so surprised
Peaceful concert
SICK!!!!
Loving the jazz groove boys!
Nice feeling on the ivories. Great combo
A joy
Beautiful
This is real music
Bruh smh Im feeling Oscar Peterson vibes in the first song. He just got a new fan. I'm loving this!
@Jay Kay Lol my bad for the typo
Definitely Peterson influenced. And Monk as well.
Rose Water is beautiful
When a drummer starts playing with his head raised and his eyes closed that how u know this is too good the man is basically possessed
By the Holy Spirit of God
These guys sound so "old" and accomplished but are so young... astonishing!
this is unreal! James Francies is such an inspiration! Its just crazy.
Wow, 713 slaps, truly slaps. It's a shame the mixing isn't as good this time around.
I'm gonna friggin cry dude!
I’m actually apprehensive about listening to these selections on say , Spotify and the rest because many of these artist sound better on Tiny Desk somehow. This does not diminish any of their commercial works.
Its because usually live music sounds better
His studio work is definitely worth checking out. Brilliant stuff
And the Tiny Desk crew does an outstanding job with sound engineering. They pay attention to details.
i came to npr yt page to watch taylor swift tho it wasn't here, instead i found this gem 💖 aahh! watching this feel so goood! enjoyed this one very much. james is absolutely fantastic! this makes me seek for more new music artists to discover
As far as I'm concerned every month is black music month
Please we need a session with parcels!
It is Very good. Mississippi rare tune.
OMG. How did I miss this? This man is a genius.
best musik i have seen in along time ,thanks a lot
I love you Tiny Desk ,
You help me to love

🖤
This is some different ish. Dope!
Voy a seguir haciendo música para que un día me inviten a presentarme en Tiny Desk 🥺
🇧🇷 Show 🔊🔥🔥
Very cool
I would really love to do tiny desk with my band. I've attempted a couple times before, but this vibe just reminded me how had I want to be on here. I'm independent based out of St. Louis MO, but it'd be an honor. Check out my a "Day in St. Louis" we'd bring this vibe meets tank and the bangas. I'm Poetiq, and a big HUGE fan. Much love.
Hey, best of luck ! I'll check out your music a bit later !
Wishing you much success! Took a quick listen and your music is definitely a vibe.
@@318xoalexis much love I appreciate it. Just came back from performing in NY as well. Played for actor and comedian JB Smoove. More music is on the way. Much love 🙏🏿
@@real_poetiq what an amazing accomplishment! JB Smoove is great, he has good choice in music too 😎
Ok I know it's jazz but it's kind of funky. Delightful.
❤️ 🎶
Is there such a thing as a “Music Theory/Composition Coach”? I’d be honored to study from any of these talented individuals involved in this gorgeous performance.
haha get in line man
Ive never heard anyone play the piano this way
The keys of the first few seconds from 713 🔥🔥 I wish the ending had those chords; or released that version. Without Say When its James F no doubt 🙏🏽🙏🏽
He looks like Kimbo Slice yo....👍💯
Keep coming back to 713...speedy fingers
What a physique! He is definitely biggest pianist i’ve ever seen
I love Tupac 💗
a-ma-zing
🙏😊👍
Jeremy Dutton !!!
