This week's schedule
The week starts out with Billie Eilish — whose debut full-length, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? is our Album of the Week — appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Monday night sees The Killers on Kimmel and longtime English rock band The Zombies on Fallon.
Wednesday will bring an interesting performance to Kimmel as legendary DJ Marshmello performs with CHVRCHES. Canadian band The Strumbellas perform on Late Night with Seth Meyers later that night.
And the singer-songwriter widely hailed as the Geordie Bruce Sprinsteen, Sam Fender, will perform on CBS This Morning's Saturday Sessions, capping off three consecutive weeks when that program welcomes an artist who performed at The Current's Day Party in Austin, Texas, during the SXSW music festival.
