The National will perform a song from the Day Of The Dead tribute to the Grateful Dead on the Monday, May 9 episode of CBS’s The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. Brothers Aaron and Bryce Dessner of The National curated the years-in-the-making Day Of The Dead compilation which comes out May 20 via 4AD.
