Alec Ounsworth: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

Ounsworth recently recorded some songs with his Philadelphia-based friends in a band called Flashy Python, which features members of Dr. Dog, The Walkmen and Man Man. And in the fall of 2009, he released a solo record called Mo’ Beauty, which he wrote and recorded in New Orleans with a group of local musicians and producer Steve Berlin (Los Lobos, The Blasters).

Now, Ounsworth has put a new band together to tour with the music of Mo’ Beauty. But when he came to the NPR Music offices to perform a Tiny Desk Concert, his sound was stripped down to just two acoustic guitars, accompanied only by his bandmate and guitarist, Matt Sutton.
