Following the Fourth of July holiday, it's a mixed bag as to which shows are back from hiatus and which are still on break. Either way, there's a number of good performances this week. Standout encore performances include Florence + the Machine (Late Night with Seth Meyers), Arcade Fire (Saturday Night Live) and Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit, and Amanda Shires (each in turn on Austin City Limits).

Here's the complete rundown. Check your local listings for broadcast times.*
