Foo Fighters performed their debut Tiny Desk Concert at NPR on May 13, playing a mix of new tracks and classics. The six-piece band adapted their stadium sound to the small office space for a five-song set.
The group opened with “Spit Shine” from their new album Your Favorite Toy before moving into “Learn to Fly.” Dave Grohl addressed the NPR staff, calling the appearance an honor and recalling past Tiny Desk favorites including Trouble Funk. He also joked about avoiding a mishap that occurred during a recent SNL UK performance of “Child Actor,” the second new song played that day.
