Meet NPR Music's 2021 Tiny Desk Contest Winner

From the creator

On Friday, Sept. 17, NPR Music's Bob Boilen interviewed the winner of the 2021 Tiny Desk Contest: Neffy! Neffy is a singer-songwriter from Arlington, Va., with a stunning, singular voice whose songs combine influences from folk, soul and R&B. Her entry video for “Wait Up,” which reflects on the healing power of nature, is a testament to her honest, emotional songwriting. Since teaching herself guitar as a teenager, Neffy has played hundreds of shows in New York and Washington, D.C., and says she considers live performances as the best part of her creative process. Her winning song, "Wait Up," was chosen by a panel of judges out of thousands of entries from across the country.
