We were blown away by the winner of this year’s Tiny Desk Contest, Cure for Paranoia . But the Dallas hip-hop collective wasn’t the only Tiny Desk entry to wow us.
A panel local judges convened by – Amory Sivertson, Pranav Swaroop, Paul Willis, Safiya and Amelia Mason – selected 22 finalists from 184 Massachusetts entries, in search of an artist to crown the Local Tiny Desk Favorite.
Along the way, our panel of judges found many extraordinary entries. Here are a few of the entries that stood out to us.
Aric B., 'Always U'
Cloudbelly, 'Phantom Lung'
Hwajong Kim, 'Night'
Bog Berries, 'Choose For Me'
