Watch J Mascis’s 'Tiny Desk Concert', featuring 'Tied To A Star' tracks 'Stumble', 'Drifter'/'Heal The Star' and the Dinosaur Jr. classic 'Little Fury Things' (from 'You’re Living All Over Me').
NPR Music’s Bob Boilen says of the performance: “The loudest guy in the world came to the 'Tiny Desk' to perform some of his quietest music...for years a guy who's turned my ears red, showed up armed with just an acoustic guitar. I even had an amp for that guitar all lined up, but he decided to not plug in. So we get a rare treat: a low-key J Mascis, performing emotional songs...If you think Mascis draws all his power from sheer volume, this ought to convince you otherwise."
Sub Pop will release J Mascis’ cover of the Mazzy Star classic 'Fade Into You' as a Record Store Day Black Friday exclusive on November 28. The 7” single features 'Fade Into You' on the A-side, and the previously-unreleased 'Outside' on the B-side, which was recorded during sessions for 'Tied To A Star'.
