Little Big Town Perform on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
Back in April, country music supergroup, Little Big Town, debuted their haunting, yet beautiful new single “The Daughters,” performing the emotional song at the ACMs. On Wednesday night, Jimi Westbrook, Kimberly Schlapman, Karen Fairchild, and Phillip Sweet combined their vocals for another stellar performance of the powerful track on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
After a quick introduction by host Jimmy Fallon, the video cuts to a stunning live image of the four band members, donning almost identical black tuxedos. The simplistic style, as well as, the juxtaposition of the setting to the lyrical message, adds an intriguing quality to the rather minimalist, yet dramatic arrangement of “The Daughters.”
As always, Fairchild mesmerized the audience and listeners with her extraordinary vocals, during the first verse, while Schlapman added her own flair to the song’s second verse for an equally as captivating production. Of course, the harmonies only made the performance better, adding both sophistication and drama to the already emotive song and performance. It’s clear that Little Big Town believes in the important message of equality that they are evoking through the lyrics of the track.
“And pose like a trophy on a shelf / Dream for everyone, but not yourself / I’ve heard of God the Son and God the Father / I’m just looking for a God for the daughters.”
“The Daughters” marks the first release from Little Big Town’s forthcoming ninth studio album. We anticipate more songs to be released, as the year continues to progress. If you’re looking to catch the quartet at one of their live shows, you can catch them at many fairs and festivals over the summer. For those willing to travel, Little Big Town plays at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun on Sunday, July 7th, alongside the extremely talented, Ashley McBryde.
