Last night, Foxygen became the latest band to earn Letterman’s enthusiasm after their performance of “How Can You Really” left him claiming, “No more phone calls! We had a winner, ladies and gentlemen!”
Foxygen was joined by a group of female backing singers and the CBS Orchestra. Catch the performance below.
Befitting its title, concept and intentions — all proceeds from the album go to an organization that helps provide veterinary care to needy pet owners — With A Little Help From My Fwends calls on a motley assortment of boundary-pushing guest players. These include obvious natural allies (My Morning Jacket, Foxygen, Dr. Dog) and the less obvious likes of Tegan And Sara and avowed Lips enthusiast Miley Cyrus, who turns up in both “A Day In The Life” and an appropriately sprawling “Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds.” (In fact, “Lucy” reunites the team behind a bizarre video in which Cyrus and The Flaming Lips ham it up alongside Moby.)
