The Orwells made a raucous return to the Late Show…With David Letterman last night (June 10th) for a performance of their brilliant ‘Disgraceland‘ track ‘The Righteous One‘. Check it out below.

When the Chicago band made their debut on the US chat show earlier this year, a big impression was made on the host and his musical sidekick Paul Shaffer (thanks largely to the typically aloof antics of frontman Mario Cuomo) who demanded an encore, but were left disappointed. And although they didn’t oblige first time around, on this occasion The Orwells were more than happy to fire up again as the credits rolled.

The Orwells released their major label debut at the start of this month. “This is what a rock record should be; succinct and impressive,” Live4ever’s ‘Disgraceland’ review reads.

“The songs never linger, but they also never leaves a bad taste. Cake has been had and very much eaten, and the portions keep coming. The sound is dirty and enticing, the pace is raw and bruising, the balls are firmly nailed to the wall.”
