The organizers of NPR's much-watched Tiny Desk Contest have chosen Phoenix Afrobeat Orchestra to compete against five other bands in an online vote leading up to the announcement of the final contest winner. The theme for this week's vote — there will be a different theme each week ("the great outdoors" featured videos shot outside) — is "Big Band, Tiny Desk," and the 16-member PAO certainly fits that criteria. 

The group submitted a nine-minute version of their afrobeat jam "Catchu" to the contest. As of the writing of this story, the band was leading the way with 31 percent of the vote. Click here to cast your ballot.
