- Everyone knows there are five immutable truths in life. No. 1 is "Nothing's ever easy." No. 2 is "Nobody does the right thing." No. 3 is, well, you get the idea.
The Portland, Ore., band Ages and Ages will likely make you rethink these immutable truths - particularly the whole idea about doing the right thing in life. Pay close attention to the second song the group performs in this uplifting Tiny Desk Concert, and you'll see what I mean.
The eight young men and women who make up Ages and Ages shower audiences with pure joy. The songs are unabashedly inspirational, thoughtful and crazy-catchy, in ways that make it hard to listen without feeling better about the state of the world. The recipe: Take a liberal amount of group sing-alongs, stir in some hand-clapping, and add a few ecstatic shouts to the heavens.
Ages and Ages is touring in support of its triumphant second album, Divisionary. The group stopped by the Tiny Desk earlier this spring to perform four songs: "No Nostalgia," the infectious opener to the band's 2011 debut Alright You Restless, as well as "Divisionary," "Light Goes Out" and "Our Demons" from the new record. --ROBIN HILTON

I can't get enough of listening to this band, such great talent. None of that noisy sound of bad voices hidden in loud instruments. The voices here are perfection and harmonious vocal waves with sounds of great instruments . Thank you Ages and Ages!!!.
That piano solo at the end of this made this performance that much more epic
Since it isn't already listed in the video, the people performing are:
Tim Perry - Guitar and lead vocals
Rob Oberdorfer - Bass and vocals
Annie Bethencourt - Guitar and vocals
Becca Schultz - Piano and vocals
Sarah Riddle - Percussion and vocals
Levi Cecil - Drums and vocals
Thanks to Ages and Ages for their help!
I caught this band opening for Lake Street Dive in April and they blew me away. Bought their latest release and spun it a million times since. Love the piano accents and the harmony vocals. Congrats to Ages and Ages for a great performance. Nice work!
Click on random video. Find awesome band. Better than a lottery win.
Same thing here.
Exactly how I found them too
That’s such a cool way to discover bands......I kinda envy you on this one!
Makes me smile and happy. Thanks Ages and Ages! And NPR!!!!!!!
The best campsite bonfire music ever
Really great guys! I heard your song on The Black List and had to look you up. Very happy I did
NPR Tiny Desk!!! I have found so many wonderful bands and talents on this "programm". Here in germany we are allways some 5-6-7 years behind when it come to good music :D Just wanted to say thx!!!
same in Brazil
Explosionskatze I don't think that you're behind, it's just that the record labels and radio stations don't like taking risks and sign new bands. Go out to independent music clubs and you'll fins all sorts of new music.
hahah and I'm reading this comment five years later ! Love from Bulgaria. I know the band with divisionary few years ago thought!
Such a wonderful performance. Enjoyed every song.
Do the right thing!! I loved
I've enjoyed their music for a couple years but this NPR is their first live gig that I saw.
Their songs are truly crazy-catchy, indeed. And I do love the drummer's falsetto chorus from 6:04. How cute and lively this band is!
simply beautiful!
my goodness - how does this not have million of views?
Great songs and brilliant arrangements. Thanks!
Holycrap this is amazing!!!
COOL! GRAND! EXCELLENT!
Excelentes, maravilhosos, amei!!!!
Simply beautiful...
Amei as músicas dessa banda...
Virando fã *-*
Encantada , vocês são incríveis 🤩
These guys are great, can't believe I've never heard them before!
Best of luck to the band. I enjoyed it and will keep an eye on your all in the future. You could go places!
Great, great songs and nice performances.
This is Great Music! Your music has changed my life 4Real! Blessings to you all!
They are so amazing
Beautiful music!!!
Wonderfully gently understated compositions ~ Mrs tambourine ; you have a lovely infectious smile*
Wow, gold, gold, gold.
Fabulously Talented group I am so glad there are still gifted musicians among us this decade. I love this group! I am so impressed songs have depth meaning and valor so rare these days with screamers who call themselves singing to hide the fact that they have zero talent. I heard this group on The Black List (starring James Spader) TV show season 1 episode 2, I think. So I found them on youtube and sent them to all my friends world wide. Great Job! Did I say I love you?
Tô viciada !!!
Sílvia Marisa Marinho Cunha demais mesmo!!!!!
beautiful!
Lovely happy music!
Hippie been multiplying.
Música de qualidade é outra história... Maravilha de 🎶 🎶 🎶
Divisionary so clutch
One of the best things about Tiny Desk Concerts is finding artists I probably would have never come across, otherwise.
This is way cool..love the sound and the words...so inspirational..makes me have faith in the human race..if this is the next generation i am hopeful
Peace
So good so good
this is great
I love their version of "We need a little Christmas" and play it at least once a month lol. When I'm stuck late at work, it helps me to regroup and concentrate...for some reason. 🤷🏾♀️
I love Ages and Ages!
Fooking amazing
This is what you get when Lucius and Typhoon have a love child.
Two of my favorite bands. And yeah, I think I found ages and ages because I was constantly listening to those other two and this came up on my feed.
love this tiny desk. listened to all their music on spotify and am sadly disappointed. but this performance is a gem.
Love the piano solo on demons...
great music
so natürlich schön
GOOD VOICE
amazing
I blast around NPR almost every night. I love the almost, "not for prime time" groups. I enjoy all good musicians playing the music that goes with my brain. A lot of NPR are established main stream people that are great. But groups l;ike this I really, really identify with. They play chords I get. And the key board is off the chart on the last set. She rocks!
What fun music :)
Bravo!
Great!
Awesome choices, video & sound :)
Hear their "Divisionary from the Blacklist. Thanks NPR for having them here at Tiny Desk.
awesome

Stain Rubenstain pi
curtindo...
14:00 give you everything i got, for a peace of mind!
so excited to see these guys next Saturday at Garfield Artworks!
Update: They were incredible. My girlfriend and I arrived to the show early and offered to help them load in. They were all very friendly. The music itself was gorgeous and their energy was just fantastic. I highly recommend going to a show if you have the opportunity.
Divisionary was played in a key lower than the official live video, which disappointed me a little. Still very good!
EXCELLENT (y) (y) (y)
Better than the album.

Dave Matthews on the drums!
Why is syncopation is so memorable?

Love the band, but this particular desk seems rather spacious.
7:09 best song starts
Yoh -- the pianist sure can tickle the ivory heh. Hottie.
DA BEETLES BEAT
The piano player has such a gorgeous face
Are they playing in some used book store or something?
+Endezeichen Grimm All of the Tiny Desk Concerts are filmed in the NPR office.
i am personally get 500k more views to this amazing video
Nice band, sounds a bit like Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zero's. But much more down to earth. No hippy-shit.

this shit is nothing that wasn't done in the 70's
get out of the 70's by not imitating the 70's
song4night got something against the 70,s?
song4night ummmmm so like really who the fuck cares
this Generation can do nothing but Imitate,and then act like they made something new.I'm sick of it

In my opinion, originality is overrated. But, if you'd like to make something original, I'd love to see it.
Finally! A band full of normal looking white peolpe-just like me!
+Evan Johnson I understand by "people" (for peolpe), probably you mean "band" or "musicians". I don't know what you mean by "normal looking white". I hope it is not intended to be racist. I am certain you may find "normal looking" amongst bands and musicians from all continents and regions of the world, some of them are not "white", still "normal looking". I hope you'll agree. I hope you won't say about BB King, Cesaria Evora, Salif Keita or Hiromi Uehara that they are not "normal looking". For sure, these musicians, in case you don't know about them, they are not white. Still normal, cheers :)
+constagrig Thank you. I for one have noticed lots of white artists on Tiny Desk, and I am super grateful to this channel for the amount of cool afro-jazz, flamenco, RnB, and other kinds of 'coloured' music it's introduced me to. I was really enjoying this band as well, and certanly wasn't expecting little nuggets of casual racism to spruce up the page :-\ The meaning of 'normal' is all too clear though--the intended word I believe is 'normative'.
I was just trying to be funny. Most bands with white people look like hipsters and not your average joe and that's what I was alluding to. I, too, am happy with all the different kinds of music and musicians NPR features.
Hey. Sorry if I overreacted! I get now that you were stressing more on the normal looking bit than the white bit. I saw a similar comment somewhere else (something to do with the courage to peddle white music) and it really annoyed me that people seemed to think NPR's rich diversity is a copout somehow. So many whites act betrayed if artists outside their community get a little extra attention. Anyway, peace :)
Finally NPR has the courage to peddle white music.
+Brighton DeChienne hahahahahaha
+Brighton DeChienne Music has no colour.
constagrig hahahahahaha
@@constagrig Music IS color
Take off the white hood, I can barely hear you.
The lady perched with her various tambourines and knick-knacks needs to STOP.
