English psychedelic pop band Glass Animals performed on The Late Late Show with James Corden. Corden talked with Glass Animals lead singer Dave Bayley about the new album and the band’s performance on the show:
“Releasing this album has been strange. There’s no, like, rulebook on releasing a record in a pandemic. The label was amazing at just letting do mad things, make mad music videos, mad experiential on the internet with Zoom, and stuff like that. So we’re going to basically try and incorporate some of that madness into a live show.”
Glass Animals played ‘Tangerine’ from their latest album, Dreamland, which was released on August 7.
