  • April 4, 2018 | Bob Boilen -- The last time Dan Auerbach came to the Tiny Desk he brought a mariachi band (we supplied confetti cannons). That was our 500th performance at the Tiny Desk, with Dan playing alongside his band The Arcs.
    This time out, we have a different kind of celebration - and an explosion of talent - as Dan brings his Easy Eye Sound Revue to the Tiny Desk. It's an abundance of gifted musicians who have all played with a long, long list of legends, including Elvis, Don Williams and John Prine. Their set recalls a time and sound from the '60s when southern R&B, including Nashville, was a force.
    Midway through the four-song set (that includes tunes from his 2017 album Waiting on a Song), Dan introduces a powerhouse: the seasoned but relatively unknown blues-and-soul singer Robert Finley. The husky voiced gentleman, with a giant smile and magical charisma, is heart-winning and heart-warming. It's remarkable that this legally blind singer is only now getting the attention he deserves. Hopefully this inspires you to go digging to hear the album Robert Finley and Dan Auerbach released at the end of 2017 called Goin' Platinum.
    For those of you who saw the recent Tiny Desk Concert from fellow Nashville musician John Prine, you may remember John telling tales of writing songs with Pat McLaughlin in the morning, going to town for some meatloaf and then recording the song by day's end. Well that's Pat on the mandolin here in this Tiny Desk set. His playing is both astonishing and low-key. The small band for this stripped-down version of the "Revue" is fleshed with Dante Schwebel on guitar and Russ Pahl's resonator guitar sounds.
    Dan Auerbach is a master of ceremonies, a community maker and a great songwriter. His world is one where it's hard to tell if this pool of talent has gathered around to join Dan, or if he's managed to reconnect some old magic in hopes of going along for a great ride himself. Either way we win.

    "Never In My Wildest Dreams"
    "Get It While You Can feat. Robert Finley"

    I miss the Keys with all of my heart, but those songs and albums will always be there to rediscover years from now. I like what Dan is doing with his success though. Spreading the wealth and making good music with a bunch of people I would never have been introduced to if it wasn't for Dan. His new gig as a record producer must be the coolest job in the world. Total creative freedom, riding old knuckleheads and living in Nashville. Awesome success story. Thanks Dan

    When I first listened to this performance, it spoke to my soul. It was very special to my then-boyfriend when I played it for him too. Years later, it's still so special to us. Never in My Wildest Dreams is our song. We danced to it at our wedding. Thank you to Dan, the band, and NPR for sharing this beautiful music.

      yes i know, i was trying to point out that genres dont have to be called old or new. Also, I would say that dan does have mostly blues roots

      Yes. I’m actually from Louisville, I’ve seen the Black Keys (my favorite band) 3 times here in Louisville, the best performance I saw with them was at Iroquois Ampitheatre, it was absolutely so amazing. The Forecastle show was amazing as well though.

    The contagious energy and joy that jumps off the screen from the obvious buzz that these boys are getting from this performance just makes this amazing song hit you even more between the eyes. It's as though they can't believe after all these years such a simple sounding song hasn't been written before and these bunch of ol musos are just grateful they found it first after waiting so long to find it. Lol it was well worth the wait guys one of the best and most feel good songs I've heard in years. Almost reminds of something Buddy Holly could have done had his plane not taken off on that dreadful winter night in 1959.
