Budget cuts have made consistent live music on Late Night a thing of the past
Proving, once again, that pumping $2 billion into Peacock might have been the wrong move, NBC has informed the house band for Late Night With Seth Meyers that their nightly services are no longer required. The show’s 8G Band will no longer appear live on the show, at least not regularly, starting with season 12.
In the meantime, 8G will continue to make music for the show, pre-recording tracks for Late Night producers to play on air. However, we suppose that means we’ll hear fewer specific stings, like the teases to the James Bond theme when Pierce Brosnan is on, and even fewer special guest drummers. Before they leave, Janney hopes to “try all kinds of things,” such as “having some of our favorite drummers from the guest-drummers program” back.
