There have been two Dirty Projectors performances on late night television in September, their highest profile appearances to date. Earlier this month, they did David Letterman on CBS. Earlier today, Jimmy Fallon on NBC. The band debuted a new song there. You’re going to love it.

Sometimes, though, the backstage magic is as powerful than the on-stage magic. In the photograph above you can see Questlove from Fallon’s house band, The Roots, holding an iPhone. Without further adieu, here’s what he shot with it:

Life has taken on a rather blurred quality of late. Like this other image from the Fallon taping.

The only time things snap into focus is when the music starts. Other than that it’s dreamy and, occasionally, outright surreal.

Hi, that’s me. No plans to replace Letterman have been announced. But still, whoa!

How you doing?
