Conor Oberst has released two albums — Ruminations and Salutations — in the span of just five months, with the latter dropping just in March. As frequent as his output has been, however, his late night appearances have been rare. He performed just once in support of Ruminations, and last night he appeared on James Corden to finally play behind Salutations. Joined by acclaimed session drummer Jim Keltner and The Felice Brothers as his backing band, Oberst sat at his piano to deliver the album’s opening track, “Too Late to Fixate”. Check out the replay above.
