Late Night Pick: Run The Jewels

Alternative rappers, Run The Jewels, whose album "RTJ2" showed up on many a year-end best-of list including a few designating it the #1 album of the year, will be on Conan tonight at 11 PM on TBS.

Late Night Pick: Panda Bear

Animal Collective co-founder, Panda Bear, is riding high right now on his critically acclaimed new release, Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper. You can hear a track from it tonight on Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon (NBC, 11:35 PM). Panda Bear's site to promote the album is verrrrrrrrrrrrry psychedelic.
