Melbourne, Australia native Courtney Barnett and Philadelphia-based Kurt Vile released their debut collaborative album Lotta Sea Lice earlier this year. The pair of guitarists recently stopped by Bob Boilen’s workspace to record a session for the NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert series.

The four-song set was made up entirely of songs that appeared on the Lotta Sea Lice, a project that had been in the making since 2015. It opens with the album opener “Over Everything,” followed by the fellow single “Continental Breakfast.” Next comes “Blue Cheese” a song Barnett prompted Vile to resurrect which the latter had written when he was 12-years-old. Finally, the session closes with “Let It Go.”
