Sixpence None the Richer brought a nostalgic glow to NPR Music with a festive Tiny Desk Concert, marking the return of a beloved holiday tradition at the office. The set opened with the gentle waltz of “The Last Christmas,” a track inspired by guitarist Matt Slocum’s journey into parenthood, followed by a comfort-filled rendition of the holiday standard “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear.” Frontwoman Leigh Nash anchored the performance with her signature “candied” vocals, blending career-defining hits like “Melody of You” and the 30th-anniversary staple “Kiss Me” with the soul-stirring solo track “Eternal Gifts.”
