Another great round of late-night performances on television last night. This time, Jimmy Kimmel brought in My Morning Jacket who were the headliners at our Rock the Garden installment this summer. They played the bombastic track "Outta My System" off their new album (and one which we really love), Circuital.




Jay Leno highlighted Iron & Wine's new track for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Pt. 1. Say what you will about the merit of the Twilight movies - you can't deny that some great artists have recently contributed songs to the soundtracks. Sam Beam brought in strings and back-up singers for a rendition of "Flightless Bird, American Mouth (Wedding Version)." Check out his session with The Curent earlier this year.
