Royal Thunder: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

Fucking power

Pure unadulterated raw power 🤘🏼

I like their album sound but I'm more amazed how well it translates into an acoustic set. It really shows off that great songwriting underneath the distortion.

My good friend Jordan showed me this and it's incredible I'm enjoying this and relate

She is killer in concert, needs to be a headliner. Seriously.

Best modern rock voice. If you disagree you're wrong.

Mlny Parsons sends chills down my spine, "You were never really innocent
But you were given the gun..."

If you like her, check out Two Minutes to Late Night with Royal Thunder. They do three covers (Miley Cyrus - Wrecking Ball, Kesha - Bastards and Motorhead (oh my god) - Ace of Spades) and she is absolutely insanely good in each one. It's way more metal, fair warning

Her voice is a beautiful blend of Pink and Janis Joplin

Her voice speaks deeply to my soul

Ustedes son fantásticos que buena música hacen

Fantastic in every way.

She makes my soul want to burst out of my chest and punch the first person it lays eyes on, just because it's freaked out from it's electrified royal awakening! Royal Thunder crushes souls. i love it

Easily the best version of Plans, never really stood out to me on the record but man what a powerful song

I feel like Janis Joplin has been reincarnated.

That girl is a treasure

When I was a little boy, my mother sang Janis Joplin songs to me, and I'll never forget it. And MLNY is Janis' reincarnation.

I find it totally criminal that Royal Thunder aren't massive! I make everyone I know sit and listen to their albums whenever I get the chance. There is so much to love about this band.

angry much?

Mel's voice gives me chills. Holy smokes, such power.

That was one of the most heartfelt, visceral performances I've seen in a long time. Loved these guys for awhile. This just reaffirmed that. Mlny is a siren, and wails with the best of them!

Mlny Parsonz is what you get if Janis Joplin had fronted Black Sabbath instead of Ozzy Osbourne.

O my god what a killer freakin Voice!

Great voice

MOST UNDERRATED VOICE IN ROCK MUSIC SINCE EVER!

Thanks to internet that I hear this beautiful voice and powerful music. From Belarus))

I've watched this so many times.

Absolutely incredible band in the studio and live. Really nice people too.

And this is why the world doesnt need autotune. Fantastic

The best. Saw them in reno nevada. Everyone one of the band members were top notch. Music makers. Love it

greate voice great band

Name of song?

You can feel everything she is singing! I've got goosebumps on my goosebumps!

I love her singing voice as well as he speaking voice. She always sounds good even when just speaking normally. Very memorable.

Lol I never thought I'd see this in my life hahaha. I'm a huuuuuge fan, since their first album dropped. I love this band and I love that they're getting this kind of exposure. I was surprised NPR is showcasing heavier bands now, but I love it ❤❤❤

Tremenda voz, de las mejores, con sentimiento, entregando todo en la canción.... Genial!

she can belt very powerful in higher layers like Cornell. Very rare. love the guitar work also.

Acoustic player is on a different level than us all

She is a female Jack Black

and shes rocking that shrek vest, the levels of badassery are massive!

I've loved this band for a good 7 years, awesome to see them do one of these

Mlny power! Great singer

Beautiful voice. Saludos desde Argentina

Love this!!! So cool ..

Can't help feeling that if you blend Stevie Nicks and Janis Joplin, and add a dash of Bonnie Raitt, you get the singular gut-wrenching haunting power of Mlny Parsonz. Top it off with a crisp, balanced undiluted rock essence and you've landed yourself a pretty terrific and woefully undervalued setup. Wishing them all the very best. Many thanks for these fine few joyful minutes, Royal Thunder!

Everything about this woman is perfect. Such a powerful yet intimate voice, you can feel every word. One of my favourite songs ever is Royal Thunders' Time Machine. If you don't know it, please look it up right now. I guarantee you'll not regret it.

For plans, anyone know what key/tuning this is?

Great performance, strange that it took 7 years for me to watch it. Was first introduced to Royal Thunder from 2 Minutes To Late Nite
