The winner of the 2024 Tiny Desk Contest is The Philharmonik! Hailing from Sacramento, Calif., The Philharmonik is a producer, singer, rapper and multi-instrumentalist whose entry video, "What's It All Mean," floored this year's panel of judges.
And yet, crowning the Contest's 10th anniversary winner was no easy decision for our 15 judges; Tiny Desk series host and Contest judge Bobby Carter says this year of the Contest has been the most competitive yet. But the judges took their time reviewing nearly 7,000 entries from independent artists across the country, and are proud to share that The Philharmonik rose to the top.
In the second episode of Tiny Desk Contest Top Shelf, Tiny Desk alum and Contest judge Durand Bernarr featured The Philharmonik's entry, marveling at lead singer Christian Gates' brilliant commitment to the bit: his elaborate set-up, the way he stayed in character, his attitude and charisma.
