Foxygen released a new album, Hang, last Friday via Jagjaguwar. Previously the duo (Jonathan Rado and Sam France) shared “America,” a grandiose track that featured an orchestra, as well as the dance-tastic video for “Follow the Leader” and a video for “On Lankershim.” Last night he stopped by Conan to perform “Follow the Leader.” Check out the performance below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.
Foxygen’s last album was 2014’s ...And Star Power. A previous press release described Hang as “their first proper studio record.” Every song on Hang features a 40-plus-piece orchestra arranged and conducted by Trey Pollard. Matthew E. White also did additional arranging. The Lemon Twigs (aka brothers Brian and Michael D’Addario) were the band’s rhythm section, which makes sense since Rado produced their recent debut album, Do Hollywood. Steven Drozd of The Flaming Lips also guests on select tracks.
