Heavy Hinges' 2019 Tiny Desk Contest submission literally incorporated a desk into the music

The deadline for submissions has come and gone and judges are currently deciding who will be the winner of NPR Music’s 2019 Tiny Desk Contest.

Drawn from a pool of videos from unsigned acts playing an original song in a desk-y/desk-friendly/desk-adjacent setting, the winner is set to be announced next month. The victors receive their very own Tiny Desk Concert and all the perks that come from winning the esteemed contest (previous winners have scored Grammys, record deals and high-profile touring and concert opportunities).
