New Jersey's The Front Bottoms made their network television debut last night (Jan. 20) on Late Night With Seth Meyers to perform "West Virginia," one of the singles off of their latest album Back On Top, for the studio audience.
The four-piece band, who started to make a splash amongst the pop-punk scene with their 2013 album Talon of the Hawk, held a 24-hour poll on their Twitter page prior to last night's performance, asking their fans to choose which new song they should play. Ultimately, "West Virginia" won out and the band delivered a jovial performance, with frontman Brian Sella seeming nothing but happy to be up there on that stage.
The Front Bottoms released their latest album, Back On Top, back in September, and it is currently available in most formats via major label Fueled by Ramen. Aside from "West Virginia," the album, which was produced by Joe Chiccarelli (Beck, The Strokes, White Stripes), also prides itself on lead single "Cough It Out" and more recently, "Help," which has been getting some serious radio play according to a press release.
The band will head out on the European leg of their Back On Tour next month, which will kick off at Club Academy in Manchester, United Kingdom on February 4th. The Front Bottoms will be back in the U.S. before you know it, performing at Music Farm Charleston in Charleston, SC on March 18th and The Orange Peel in Asheville, NC on March 20th.
The Front Bottoms also set to perform at Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival, as well as at Boston Calling and Atlanta's Shaky Knees Festival. You can check out their full list of tour dates, as well as inquire about ticket information via their official website.
