Checking in with 2016 Contest winner Gaelynn Lea, plus join us in Atlanta tonight [View this email online]( [NPR Tiny Desk Contest]( Past winners of the Tiny Desk Contest – eight of them now! – have all gone on to great things, from world tours to Grammy awards. Today, we’re taking a moment to highlight one – the beloved [Gaelynn Lea]( winner of our 2016 Contest. In case you’re new here: The Duluth, Minn., native won with a video of her song “[Someday We’ll Linger In The Sun]( which she recorded on her phone in the space where she taught fiddle lessons. Gaelynn makes music unlike anyone else. Her beautiful folk melodies are often rooted in the sounds of Irish fiddle tunes. She also has brittle bone disease, which makes it necessary for her to play her instrument in an inventive and unique style. “The Contest definitely changed my life,” Gaelynn [told us]( last year. Since winning, she’s toured the world and [co-founded a coalition]( that amplifies disability culture in the music industry. She’s also writing a book. Most recently, she wrote music for the broadway adaptation of Macbeth – the director of the play first discovered her music by watching her Tiny Desk concert – which Gaelynn hopes will help bring disability culture into the mainstream. “Celebrating disability, rather than just accommodating it, is the next step in the journey to really valuing diversity,” [Gaelynn says](. NPR’s Tiny Desk video team recently met with Gaelynn during production on Macbeth to hear about her journey from the Tiny Desk to Broadway. We’re proud to share that video with you today: --------------------------------------------------------------- Newsletter continues after sponsor message --------------------------------------------------------------- And don’t forget: The Tiny Desk Contest team is in [Atlanta]( today for the second stop of our Tiny Desk Contest On The Road tour!
