Ear on TV: Week of January 22

It's another week, another bout with The Shins, as their album Wincing the Night Away finally sees it's release this week. This time around, Letterman (Tuesday) gets the honor and they'll feature background vocals from Viva Voce's Anita Robinson (who also sang backup for them on their recent Saturday Night Live appearance.) Viva Voce is opening for The Shins on their US tour starting February 8 (in Minneapolis, MN.)

Elsewhere, quirky but lovable Nellie Mckay appears on Letterman tonight with the Brooklyn Philharmonic which should be memorable. Also checkout The Bird and the Bee making their network television debut on Leno (Thursday.) Bee lead singer Inara George is the daughter of the legendary Lowell George (Little Feat) and their self-titled debut album also sees it's release this week.
