Madi Diaz is the First Person to play a set at our office | Track Star Presents

Hearing Madi Diaz live is an incredible thing. If you don't know about her, you're in for a treat. We first met Madi in October when she came by to play round of Track Star. Later that week I went to see her open for My Morning Jacket at the Beacon Theater. I was blown away by her performance. I remember sitting in the theater thinking about how cool it would be to have someone like Madi play a small show in our office...
This is the first of three pilot episodes we filmed in the last couple weeks. We're so excited about how these turned out and hope you like them too.

at 15:02, when Madi settles into her chair and starts strumming her guitar. it sinks in, this whole video just feels so special. And I feel like i'm witnessing a new longstanding series on this platform.
love it.

[@BecomingBenSmith]

wow! what a concept and format. a great listen, artist's pov on their songs, getting to know who they are. very excited for this! feels like a take on the beloved tiny desk series, but deeper reaching, more narrative. congrats on the launch guys!

[@WelfareChrist]

Her History of a Feeling album got me through a really bad time and I still revisit it when I'm feeling down. Her NPR Tiny Desk set is fantastic.

[@nickferry7796]

Yeah I got chills from Same Risk
Edit: tears**

[@theperksofbeingme]

Obsessed, can’t wait for more of these!

[@publicopinionnyc]

Episode 2 Monday!

[@MrDanielBull]

Seeing this video prompted me to buy tickets to see Madi perform live in London. She really is spectacular. Love the channel guys ❤️

[@publicopinionnyc]

She’s the best

[@MrMurl]

This was great! Getting viewers to cross over from shorts to videos seems to be really difficult, this did it for me. Even better now there’s a ton of other great looking long form videos I can watch after!👏

[@publicopinionnyc]

Thank you

[@HenryKornaros]

NEW TRACK STAR JUST DROPPED

[@NateBagley]

Le Blogotheque meets The Off Camera Show. Love it.

[@mylamiranda3876]

I love Madi Diaz so much. I saw her live in concert in March and it was one of the most amazing experiences ever. Her voice is so beautiful and real. The lyrics in her songs always find a way to touch my soul. Madi is truly a gifted artist and she deserves so much more hype. 🤎

[@schwaar]

Excellent work. Can't wait for more

[@augustliberty3683]

That cover of "got me started" was the best thing I've ever heard!. Does anyone know what are the chords she is playing? loved this

[@queuebit]

Is this the "next" Tiny Desk Concerts‽ It might be.
I love the interviews spliced in too.

[@villagegirl3627]

Beautiful!
Had my own NYC based run ,along with another agency, of this artist discovery and live performance/tiny desk type of online show. Set to bring it back this spring from a few more locations.
Maybe we’ll collab in the spirit of music being the universal language spoken by all!

[@TheGrifflish]
