Two nights ago, when everyone was getting their fill of Ivy League rock by the Vampire Weekenders on Letterman, I was more interested in the later musical offering. The good-timing Colorado boys known as Yonder Mountain String Band made their way to LA for their national late night television debut on The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson. Performing "Out Of The Blue" from their 2009 release, The Show, the quartet rips through the churning song, each member taking a stab at a shortened-for-television version of their signature solos that have carried these guys through the jam circuit for the past decade. I will always love YMSB, and the fact that they're finally getting some well deserved national public attention makes me, as a huge fan, a very happy person. Check out the video:

Yonder Mountain String Band begin their "Cabin Fever Tour" at the end of this month at George's Majestic in Fayetteville, AR, and will wrap their way across the south and midwest, finally ending about a month later at Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa (a slut backwards), OK. Go catch them live!
