Since we started making Tiny Desk Concerts almost eight years ago, we've had more than 500 artists play the Tiny Desk, our own little makeshift concert venue right in the middle of NPR's offices in DC. From huge stars like Adele to T-Pain to up-and-comers like Car Seat Headrest and actual big bands like Mucca Pazza, all these musicians actually play behind MY desk — but I move out of the way when they set up.
This is one of the things that always surprises people when they visit NPR — that the Tiny Desk isn't a set. So we decided to give everyone a peek behind the scenes on a Monday afternoon earlier this month, when Wilco just happened to be stopping by.
We invited a company called RYOT to bring two 360-degree cameras to our offices and put them right in the front row of the audience. Then we filmed the whole thing, starting before Wilco even set up, before the staff flocked from all over the building to see the band play. Not only can you see the band up close, but if you look around, you'll see everything else that goes into making a Tiny Desk concert. You'll see our brilliant and calm engineer, Josh Rogosin. You'll see our lead videographer and producer of Tiny Desk Concerts, Niki Walker, along with her intern, Kara Frame. Then, of course, there's the crowd — what a lucky bunch. Many of them work here, many are lucky friends of people who work here. You'd probably recognize some of the voices in this radio crowd.
If you've never watched a 360-degree video before, we can help. There's lots to look around and spot – in fact, if you look really carefully, you might be able to find seven of Wilco's album covers around the desk and references to each one that we hid in the crowd. And of course, enjoy the song itself, one of Wilco's unforgettable tunes, "Misunderstood" from the 1996 album Being There. On the left you'll see Mikael Jorgensen playing the melodica, Nels Cline on that resonator guitar, Jeff Tweedy singing and strumming, John Stirratt playing guitar and singing strongly alongside Jeff, Pat Sansone on banjo and glockenspiel, while in the back holding it all together and sometimes tearing it apart is drummer Glenn Kotche.
And when you're all done here, you can watch Wilco play all four of the songs they performed at this Tiny Desk concert. For those of us here at NPR, you can guess how boring the day seemed after this.

This isn't a 'behind the scenes'
-
So cool
-
Awe
-
THIS IS AMAZING :) Huge fan of Tiny Desk and now I get to "hang out" there :) :)
-
Yet not one musician opposed to bands has ever played there. That's part of the music revolution coming from Dallas. Sadly NPR not only does not support the change, it stands against it.
-
This is the coolest 360 I've seen so far
-
Can you please tell me what is the camera you use in the video
-
Great speech at the end!
-
LOVE IT! 360 videos are the bomb :)
-
still trying to make sense of how this simple music cuts through all the noise
-
did i hear mephone4?
-
You all are great thank from Canada. Happy Birthday America. thank for everything! God Love democracy and freedom! Amen!
Everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom.
-
I'd be sooo nervous playing in front of that many people.
-
just do this from now on thank you :)
-
The 360 cams are awesome. I never knew how big the room was and how big the crowd was. It's great seeing this and thanks so much for doing it!
-
This is awesome! I always thought it was much smaller. Thank you for sharing this. The Tinydesk Concerts are always a big source of inspiration for me...
-
This is amazing! Wish I had a VR set to enjoy this.
