"Michael" performed at Woolly Mammoth Studio. Kristen featured on cello and foot bells.
East Coast’s Gem Club (Christopher Barnes and Kristen Drymala) will sweep you off your feet. Their debut album, Breakers seems to wander, rowed slowly on a passage, secreting a message it only half-understands. Amidst the fog, however, the dim lanterns, and the specters on the banks, Gem Club maintains a clear vision, a clear voice, protective of its precious charge.
Maybe you couldn't hear a pin drop when Gem Club played, but you could hear the click of a keyboard. The band stopped by the NPR Music offices to play songs from 2011's 'Breakers.' Set List: "Animals" "Breakers" "252" For more videos and to subscribe to the Tiny Desk Concerts podcast, visit npr.org/tinydeskconcerts.
