Few musicians get better with age. Nick Lowe is an exception: At 61, Lowe is part crooner, part country and a little crotchety, but with a heart of pure pop. Watch the veteran singer-songwriter perform a four-song set in the NPR Music offices. Set List: “Man That I’ve Become” “Rome Wasn’t Built In A Day” “All Men Are Liars” “House For Sale” For more videos, visit NPR.org/tinydeskconcerts

Unbelievable! Why can’t contemparary musicians be like this, subtle understated, not fucking screaming, shouting, telling us how concerned they are for the ‘environment’. Give it a a rest, just play please …

Nick….thanks for 30 years of great music. This tiny desk thing (with headphones, 1080HD, fullscreen) is the best.

He opened for Wilco a few months ago in Dallas. – did about 45 minutes of acoustic – he was brilliant.

Rick Astley writing credit? I wonder if Betty and Beverly got inspirational credit for “Rome Wasn’t Built In A Day.” Must have, huh?

I agree totally. All Men Are Liars just sounds so much better now than 20 years ago. Just awesome.

Fantastic! I sat rapt with attention, while I just simply didnt have the time. His voice is so sweet and lilting, I wanted to cry. His older work is great, but he is more pure than ever.
