Dirty Projectors Make Letterman Stop, Tour Through Fall

Jay Leno may have had the ratings edge, but he never had the indie cred of good old David Letterman. Just this year, Letterman's Late Show has featured Animal Collective, Okkervil River, Cursive and Paste's Artist of the Week Kid Cudi.

Last night, Dave went artsier than ever as Dirty Projectors stop by the studio to jolt through a tune from the band's stellar Bitte Orca.

But wait, there's more! The Brooklyn band has a whole slew of dates lined up for the fall.
