In June of this year, Fantastic Negrito, the winner of NPR's first ever Tiny Desk concert in 2015 who churns out a fantastic hybrid of folk-rock and funk, released his sophomore LP, Please Don't Be Dead, followed by a deluxe issue in October. Backed by his band, he dropped in the Paste Studio on Aug. 27 for a round of tunes. They played three songs from the new record: "Plastic Hamburgers," "The Duffler" and "Dark Windows."
