Conor Oberst and the other members of Bright Eyes have done a ton of Zoom interviews — including one with Stereogum — to promote Down In The Weeds Where The World Once Was, the first new Bright Eyes album in nearly a decade. So what’s one more? Bright Eyes have already done quarantine-era musical-guest duty on shows like Colbert and CBS This Morning. Last night, the band did the musical-guest thing on James Corden’s Late Late Show, and Oberst also had a Zoom chat with Corden.

In the interview, Oberst talked a bit about seeing other artists cover his work, and he also mentioned how his real first album was a cassette that he put out when he was 13. But the real trip of the interview is just seeing Oberst, once a vaguely mysterious figure, projected as a giant human-sized face on a late-night host’s wall.

On the same show, we also got video of Bright Eyes performing “Pan & Broom, the song from the new album where Oberst sings over a drum-machine beat that sounds a whole lot like the one on Drake’s “Hotline Bling.” The performance must’ve been recorded live in studio a while ago, and it features Lucius singers Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig on backing vocals. Watch the interview and the performance below.

Down In The Weeds Where The World Once Was is out now on Dead Oceans.
