Sorprendente. Sólo así se me ocurre calificar la actuación que protagonizaron anoche The Roots y Justin Vernon en uno de los late nights más de moda en Estados Unidos: El Show de Jimmy Fallon. Juntos alargaron "Perth", el tema que abre el último disco de Bon Iver , y llevaron una canción que dura poco más de 4 minutos hasta superar los 8, casi el doble. Con un toque muy a lo R&B, la canción va creciendo desde una apertura tranquila hasta convertirse en un festival de instrumentos que [...]

When Bon Iver 's Justin Vernon was in NYC, The Roots invited him to stop by Fallon's spot for a little jamming. Being the gentleman that he is, he accepted, and what went down next was what you're about to witness. Together, The Roots and Mr. Vernon went in on an 8-minute version of "Perth" for this web exclusive. ( Late Night With Jimmy Fallon )
Justin Vernon stopped by the Late Night with Jimmy Fallon set to perform ?uestlove's "fav Bon Iver jawn" for the show's studio audience. As expected, The Roots deliver a very, very, smooth rendition of the opening song from Bon Iver, Bon Iver, working in some mesmerizing jams in the almost 4 minutes added on to the original track. I think they should take it to the studio and record an official version of this, anyone else? via
Justin Vernon and The Roots play a soulful 8 minute version of "Perth" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Luckily they released the video on the web so those who didn't get to catch it may watch it. An interesting combo, but Bon Iver is no stranger to collaborations having worked with the likes Kanye West before.
Já postamos apresentações de Bon Iver em diversas rádios e programas de TV. Mas dessa vez é especial. No Late Night with Jimmy Fallon de ontem, o músico contou com a participação ilustre do The Roots interpretando e dando uma cara totalmente nova a Perth , faixa que abre seu aclamado segundo álbum, com direito a solo de Kirk Douglas e tudo. Coisa linda:
?uestlove was throwing Twitter shots at Justin Vernon just a few months ago, but all that is long-buried. Last week, when he was in town for Saturday Night Live , the Bon Iver frontman stopped by the Late Night With Jimmy Fallon studios. As a special treat for the studio audience, he and the Roots played an astral, heavily Auto-Tuned eight-minute take on "Perth" that sounded perfectly lovely. And now, in their infinite wisdom, the people at Fallon have put that video online. Watch it below; it's great. Read [...]
Vernon and co. perform an extended, improvised version of "Perth" with The Roots.
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Television NBC Well, this is surprising. Bon Iver 's Justin Vernon , the man who could not give a flying expletive about the Grammys , stopped by the ' Late Night With Jimmy Fallon ' studio to jam with the Roots on 'Perth,' the opening track from his most recent album. The all-star collaboration transformed the quiet torch song into a [...]
Bon Iver's Justin Vernon and The Roots perform Bon Iver's "Perth".
Because they love their fans so much (heh), Umphrey's McGee put up their Super Bowl Village set as a free download on their blog. I'm downloading this right away; I haven't dove into any live UM in a while. It looks like Sigur Rós will be returning to the stage with a new album and [...]
A few weeks ago, Bon Iver visited the set of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon where he performed his album opener "Perth." Now, weeks later, video has surfaced of an incredible jam session that took place between The Roots and Bon Iver. The result? An 8-minute extended version of "Perth," which you can watch above courtesy of Beats Per Minute .
A couple weeks back Bon Iver got to do an extended jam session of "Perth" . Jamming out with The Roots crew to an 8-minute epic session, the blobtower even had time to bust out the auto-tune. Check it above.
There's been a lot of collabos that the Roots have been able to do, and this one came by chance. En route to soundcheck for his performance on SNL, Justin Vernon stopped by and sat in with the Roots to perform ?uestlove's " favorite jawn ," from the latest album from Bon Iver, "Perth."

While in New York recently, Bon Iver 's Justin Vernon stopped by the J immy Fallon studios. While there, he teamed up with The Roots for an eight-minute, improvised jam-out of Bon Iver, Bon Iv e r ' s "Perth". The performance was not aired on TV, but is now available below as a web exclusive (via Fallon's blog ): You're missing out, Grammys .
Justin Vernon of Bon Iver swung by Jimmy Fallon's studio last week and gathered The Roots to put on a little live performance of "Perth", and it's pretty awesome. Questlove on the drums adds an entirely different element - I could go for a little Bon Iver/The Roots collabo album. Anyone? Tweet
