Billie Eilish Gives Her Best Vocals Yet in Her New ‘Tiny Desk (Home) Concert’ Performance

NPR

Pop sensation Billie Eilish gave a chilling stripped-down performance from her home in the latest Tiny Desk (Home) Concert performance.

The 18-year-old became one of the music industry’s biggest stars, seemingly overnight, after the release of her 2015 hit “Ocean Eyes.” Eilish captivated listeners around the world, and it was hard to believe that the angelic and powerful voice belonged to a highschooler.

Eilish frequently performs with her brother Finneas, who accompanied her during her recent Tiny Desk (Home) Concert performance, which was released on Tuesday. The series is normally performed in the NPR office, but musicians are now giving their performances from home due to the current pandemic.

Eilish decided to get creative with this home concert by using a cardboard cutout of the office as her background to give viewers a sense of familiarity and to make the performance seem as normal as possible.

Fans have been demanding for the singer to give a Tiny Desk performance for a while as the series has continued to gain popularity in recent years, with performances from other big stars like Alicia Keys, Coldplay, and Harry Styles. Eilish definitely did not leave her fans disappointed. They’ve been raving about the performance on social media and it has already gotten over one million views.

Eilish only performed two songs, her latest release “my future” and her single “everything i wanted,” a song about her and her brother’s close relationship, which made the performance a bit shorter than expected for the NPR series.

With Eilish’s voice, ten minutes is all that was needed for her to reel you in, leaving viewers with goosebumps and chills. Using only a keyboard and guitar, Eilish’s voice dominated the room, and there’s no denying the teen star’s vocal talent.

We’re all unsure of when we’ll be able to attend concerts again, but music lovers are enjoying the intimate home performances from their favorite artists for now. Be sure to watch out for more Tiny Desk (Home) Concert performances from NPR in the near future.
