The Walkmen were musical guests on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday (April 18), marking their first performance in a decade.
In lieu of playing new music, the band played their hit "The Rat" from 2004's Bows and Arrows. Watch it below.
"Ever since we started the Walkmen, we've done everything by the seat of our pants. We don't 'plan' much," the band wrote in a statement. "So during our Zoom 'planning' meeting, we decided the best way to play together for the very first time would be on national television without a single rehearsal. It will be the first time we all have played together in 10 years. I guess there will be a soundcheck but we don't even know if this equipment works."
Later this month, the Walkmen will embark on their reunion tour, which currently has no Canadian dates.
