The Roots To Be.....

'Critically-acclaimed, Grammy-winning band The Roots will be Jimmy Fallon's house band when "Late Night" makes its broadcast debut. Named one of the "20 Greatest Live Acts in the World" by Rolling Stone, The Roots will bring their eclectic hip-hop sound to the new "Late Night."'

That's right....as I previously mentioned (see Rumor Has It --Nov. 22) and as you see above, it has officially been announced....The Roots will become the house band for "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon". The show is scheduled to debut on Monday, March 2, 2009 at 12:35/11:35c.

Rumor Has It.....

There is a rumor going around that Hip-Hop band, The Roots will retire from touring and become the house band for 'Late Night' once Jimmy Fallon takes over. Currently they are on tour in Europe. Whether this is true or not....depends on the article about the subject you read. Guess we will not know until the show begins taping.
