Nick Valensi brought his new band CRX to Jimmy Kimmel Live this week ahead of the start of a full North American tour next month.
The Strokes guitarist aired Ways To Fake It with Richie James Follin on keyboards, drummer Ralph Alexander, Jon Safley (bass) and Darian Zahedi (guitar), and is now pretty much ready to start the tour in Denver on November 7th.
He’s not forgetting The Strokes either – they’re ‘slowly but surely working on a new album‘.
