Tiny Desk Contest Winners Matter The Tiny Desk Contest has become a benchmark for emerging talent in the music industry, providing a platform for artists to showcase their skills and creativity.
The annual competition, run by NPR, invites musicians worldwide to submit videos performing at "Tiny Desks" – small, intimate settings that bring the artist up close and personal with the audience.
The contest was born out of a simple idea: creating an environment where music could be made accessible and enjoyable in a busy office.
