Watch Interpol’s Carlos D Return To Music On Seth Meyers To Tracy Morgan’s Delight
Former Interpol bassist Carlos Dengler, bka Carlos D, hasn’t played music live since quitting the band in 2010 to pursue a second career as an actor. That all changed this week, as he picked up a bass for the first time years to sit in with the 8G Band, the Late Night With Seth Meyers house band led by Fred Armisen. Tracy Morgan, who appeared as one of the guest’s on Tuesday’s show, was very impressed by Carlos D, although he didn’t seem to know who he was:
1st time in almost a decade playing bass live today for Late Night with Seth Meyers – two magical words that saved the day: muscle memory

Carlos D is in excellent company, as previous guest performers with the 8G Band include other indie rock heroes like St. Vincent, Eleanor Friedberger, J Mascis, and Marnie Stern.
