NPN announced weeks ago that it would be ushering in a slew of new Tiny Desk concerts in time for Black Music Month honoring the anniversaries of landmark albums that have shaped the course of music and culture.

The outlet teased that Amerie would be one of those artist taking the stage and as promised, they have delivered.

Amerie’s official Tiny Desk concert premiered on Friday (June 6) and sees her deliver several of her hits and fan-faves.

via NPR:

Amerie, who once lived in Washington, D.C. for several years, returns to the city with a reimagined set accompanied by go-go legends Backyard Band. Together, they open the show with songs from her debut album All I Have, including “Talkin’ to Me” and the quintessential summer anthem “Why Don’t We Fall in Love.” She eases into her latest single, “Mine,” and delivers a fan-favorite “I Just Died,” before introducing a new rendition of “Rolling Down My Face” that you’ll want to hear all the time from now on. By the time “Talkin’ About” kicks in, Amerie is in full dance mode. When “1 Thing” closes out the set, she steps from behind the Desk to join the dance party, turning the performance into a celebration.

Get into the full set list and concert below.
