Last night, Destroyer and Jessica Pratt linked up on one of late-night television’s most unique stages to perform a medley of Destroyer stunner “Travel Light” and Pratt’s Here in the Pitch highlight “World on a String” on Everybody’s Live with John Mulaney. Watch it below.
The performance marks the live debut of material from Destroyer’s just-released thriller Dan’s Boogie but, true to Dan Bejar’s inscrutable nature, revealed little about how the album will sound when the full seven-piece Destroyer outfit is turned loose upon its ruins and dreamscapes later this year. Fans won’t have much longer to wait: Destroyer’s 2025 tour hits the EU and UK in June, North America in September and October, and boogies back to Europe in November. Tickets for all dates are now on sale.
