Watch Sturgill Simpson’s Brassy Performance of “Welcome to the Earth (Pollywog)” on “Late Night With Seth Meyers”

Sturgill Simpson may have grumblings with the ACM Awards, Music Row and Garden & Gun magazine, but he’s got no beef with Seth Meyers. Sturgill made another appearance on Late Night last night (Oct. 12) to perform “Welcome to Earth (Pollywog),” the lead track from his 2016 album, A Sailor’s Guide to Earth.

Backed by a multi-piece brass and string ensemble, Sturgill got down to business with his foreboding vocals before the horn section busted out the soulful groove.

Check out the performance below.
