Soul Glo have just released a Tiny Desk Concert, and according to NPR's Lars Gotrich, it's the first time a hardcore band has ever done so.
"We have hosted rap legends, Broadway musicals, pop stars, world-renowned classical musicians, indie rockers and folkies," he wrote on NPR.org. "There's a universe of music at the Tiny Desk that keeps expanding. But we have never featured a hardcore punk band at the NPR Music office... until Soul Glo."
(Turnstile played a Tiny Desk (Home) Concert in 2022, performing at drummer Daniel Fang's house.)
The acclaimed hardcore rabble-rousers played three songs off 2022's excellent Diaspora Problems, including the rap song "Driponomics," and their more recent single "If I Speak (Shut The Fuck Up)." Soul Glo shows are always wild, and it's a little different seeing them behind a desk without a rowdy audience right up against them, but it's still a treat in its own right. Watch below.
Soul Glo are gearing up to head on tour supporting their fellow Philly-based Epitaph labelmates Mannequin Pussy. All dates are listed below.
