Les Savy Fav brought a bit a lot of chaos in their performance of “World Got Great” in Late Night with Seth Myers on Wednesday night.
The occasion was particularly special for the New York City indie punk band. By day, bassist Syd Butler and guitarist Seth Jabour are members of Seth Meyers' house band, 8G Band. However, you wouldn't guess they were the titular employees based on the performance, because vocalist Tim Harrington was the one strutting around the studio like he owned the building.

The band blasted through the blistering “World Got Great,” a cut from their recent album and the first offering of new music in more than a decade. Yes, LSF. Harrington arrived looking quirky and, as is typical for Les Savy Fav, changed costumes mid-performance. She also walked over to Seth's desk at one point, grabbed a pencil, and played “host” while he howled into the microphone. Watch the performance below.
Les Savy Fav are no strangers to Late Night with Seth Myersgiven Butler and Jabour's presence in the show's band — they last played in 2019 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Frenchkiss Records, which Butler founded in 1999.
Meanwhile, the band has a short North American tour starting this summer. Get tickets to Les Savy Fav here.
