Late Night Pick: Jason Isbell

He won two Grammys this year (Best Americana Album for "Something More Than Free" and Best American Roots Song for "24 Frames."). He's coming to the Altria Theater on June 21. And tonight he'll be on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert (11:35 PM, CBS). He's the extraordinary Jason Isbell. From his previous album, "Southeastern", this is "Elephant" (note there is one word NSFW):

Late Night Pick: Jimmy Page

Tonight, Jimmy Page is on Late Show with David Letterman (CBS, 11:35 PM), however, he is not the musical guest. I'm guessing he's on to plug the Led Zep IV and House of the Holy deluxe releases that just came out. Perhaps he'll talk about some new music too. I was just thinking yesterday about how the dude hasn't put any new music out in a looooong time. In fact, it's been 16 years since his last new music release, Page & Plant's "Walking into Clarksdale". Come on, man, you're not getting any younger and Led Zep is not getting back together. Time to step up. Just as long as he doesn't get together with David Coverdale again.

Jimmy was in a pretty awesome movie called "It Might Get Loud" in which Jimmy, Jack White and Edge discuss their different approaches to guitar playing. And of course there is lots of great guitar work. Here's the 3 of them working out "In My Time of Dying":

Late Night Pick: FKA Twigs

The first album (LP1) from experimental R&B artist FKA Twigs (aka Tahliah Barnett) is getting rave reviews. See what the hype is about on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (NBC, 11:35 PM) tonight. Here she is performing her song, "Hide", inside some Mayan ruins. Why? Why not?
