Fantastic Negrito is a man’s truth told in the form of black roots music. Each song is a real story about a musician from Oakland who experienced the highs of a million dollar record deal, the lows of a near fatal car accident that put him in a four-week coma, and is now in the phase of rebirth despite his playing hand being mangled. Negrito’s music emphasizes rawness and space. Slide guitar, drums, piano. Rather than update the Delta Blues, Fantastic Negrito leaves the original sounds of Lead Belly and Skip James intact, building bridges to a modern sound with loops and samples of his own live instruments. But the primary element that drives Fantastic Negrito’s music is uncut realness and zero concern for “pop” anything.

God bless NPR Tiny Desk....for the great music I find on here
Got chills as soon as I heard this guys voice. Their rhythm is impeccable 👌
Im so proud of being chilean hearing this amazing guitarrist being from my country, i discovered Fantastic Negrito last year and haven't sotop playing him since then, KEEP ROCKING OMG U R GREAT GUYS
"you take the things that are broken that are messed up and you make them better. " brought me to tears. i was in a coma for a month and woke up with my entire body broken head to toe and that was in 2014. Wish i had heard your beautiful heartfelt music earlier, you sure are a bright light. thank you and wishing you the best
I still get goosebumps from this performance. So good

the way he delivered the first lines of the 3rd song (and some other lines within that song) reminded me of "seven nation army" a lot. amazing artist. can't believe how many times I saw the thumbnail of this performance and didn't click on it :oooooo

The pianist made the day also. The whole band actually. Very enjoyable
I can't believe this. I have no words. This is far too good and this format suits his sound SO DEEPLY... Totally breathless
When I watch this, I can't help but feel like his every pore...his every sense (sight, smell, hearing, etc.) is working in perfect concert during this entire performance. His every cell is that of an artist, creating a masterpiece. I've never seen such a singer that uses his body almost like that of a dancer...an actor....pulling it all together into one performance...
Amazing!!! I felt his emotions. Love Tiny Desk.
What this talented man has gone through to make it here is unreal.
Folks...you are all on point with your comments. Xaviers music is the real deal. Soulful, heartfelt, intelligently written and unique. At a personal level I can share with you that he is genuinely lovely bloke. Down to earth and loyal. He just had twins! His success could not have come at a better time.
I loved every second of this. Such a powerhouse of Fantastic groove.
Thank you! This is great and I can't wait to see what is next! I have listened to this almost every day since it was shared with me 3 weeks ago. -Heather Kilgore
My tens to Fantastic Negrito, u should be proud of this!
Love the passion and soul put into the music.
I've barely touched my Bass Guitar for years, since the band broke up. Findin' this great man's music made me wanna play til my fingers bled. Thanks, Brother!! I just got turned on to your music recently. Wish it happened a lot earlier. Your expression of Rhythm & Blues is up there with greatest in history. The greats who went before you are harmonizing with approval from above. Long live Fantastic Negrito! Keep it coming, man. 😎

so much energy... it's contagious!!!
Lost in a crowd You feel your thoughts out loud Lost in the wilderness of the sound Get through the day, don't drown Life it goes fast, youth is gone Feeling of loss Come on, grieve, move on Stuck in the shadows of a life That you tried to leave behind Games people play Slave through the year for a holiday Stuck in a room for too long Waiting to hear your favorite song Wait! Panic, Freak out I'm out on a ledge Shapeless expressions, lame dead Eat till you're fat, eat till you're dumb Spend all that money until you come Well you travel, and we travel Trying to find it I know that neither one of us No, neither one of us can survive it No the good Lord We travel and we travel Trying to find it We're just people, lonely people, you and I Come on Get yourself Get yourself Get yourself Stand in line, wait for your turn, don't you cry Here they make the best dream pie You took their money, now you die Feelings of rage, broken bones Lost in a crowd Now you're on your own This is your life, now you're gone There's no tomorrow It's here, it's on Well we travel, and we travel, Trying to find it I know that neither one of us No, neither one of us can survive it Good, good, good Lord We travel, oh we travel Trying to find it We're just people, lonely people, you and I We're just people, lonely people, you and I I tell you We're just people, lonely people, you and I La la la, la la la, la la la La la la, la la la, la la la La la la la, la la la Lonely people Lonely people
