Watch Band of Horses and Some Weird Creatures Throw a “Casual Party” on _Colbert_

May 19, 2016

Last night, Band of Horses graced us with a strange preview of their upcoming album live on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, playing both previously released singles from Why Are You OK, set for release on June 10 via Interscope.

The band’s performance of lead single “Casual Party” was accompanied by a unique posse of hype men (/women/things?) that ranged from a human gold pop-pom to a crouching pink alien to what looks like Speed Racer with a major tooth issue. And none of the accompanying weirdos seemed too psyched to be onstage. Casual party, indeed. We do get a little head bob from Pom Pom Swamp Thing near the end. Oh, the power of indie rock.

Watch both “Casual Party” and the online exclusive, monster-less performance of “In A Drawer,” below.
