And if you missed it before, you can re-watch Cat Power performing the new song Bully on Later… with Jools Holland below.
Versions of “Bully” have been a part of live shows for some time, but it’s now given an official release and available as a single from iTunes where’s it’s also added to the iTunes version of the album with bonus tracks. Sun is also available on physical formats from the Matador store (excluding “Bully”).
And in other Late Night Television News, be sure to mark your calendars for Friday, May 17 as Kurt Vile And The Violators will be taking the stage of the Late Show with David Letterman performing a song off of their forthcoming release, Wakin On A Pretty Daze.
Listen to Wakin On A Pretty Daze now over at NPR
and pre-order the album (out 4.9) over at the Matador Store
Not too long ago, Chan Marshall & director Greg Hunt grabbed a flatbed and filmed the music video from one of ‘Sun”s many highlights, “Manhattan” . Watch the video below, or at catpowermusic.com. In it, Chan visits some of the haunts she’s been frequenting since the early stages of Cat Power, as well as some of the locales essential to her musical foundation. Whether or not they secured a MOFTB film permit, well, I’m in no position to answer that.
On tomorrow’s (Friday, 4/4) episode of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Cat Power backed by The Roots will take to the stage to perform a rendition of “Manhattan”. Early next week she’ll kick off the new season of Later… With Jools Holland with a live performance that we’ve heard will be extra-special.
That’s not it. We’re excited to share a slew of new Cat Power tour dates, taking the band through North & South America and across Europe. We’ll see you out!

If you missed Conan O’Brien‘s TBS show on Wednesday night, well, you missed Russell Brand doing A LOT OF TALKING. But more to the point, you also missed Chan Marshall and the new-look Cat Power ensemble performing “Cherokee” from the critically acclaimed ‘Sun’ LP/CD/digital full-length.
