Watch an 8-song TV On The Radio performance on Letterman

by Nicole Villeneuve

If you’ve been left a little cold by the new TV On The Radio album, we’ve got a quick cure: this really awesome performance from Live On Letterman, the online concert series that extends artists’ studio performances into mini concerts.

Nine Types of Light is an album doesn’t hit immediately, and while growers are good, this quick-shot of energy (and the familiarity of a few old songs doesn’t hurt) reminds us why we loved this band and their songs so much to start with.

You can watch the performance below, and then join us in giving Nine Types of Light another spin. Or not. But this performance is really good, so at least we’ll always have that.
