After making a star turn on The Ellen DeGeneres Show last week, watch for Lizzo to perform this Tuesday on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
Elsewhere, a busy Monday night features Margo Price appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Beck on The Late Late Show with James Corden, and a recorded performance by boygenius on Last Call with Carson Daly; as the week progresses, the members of boygenius — Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker — will each be spotlighted on Last Call on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, respectively. Killer Mike of Run the Jewels continues to be an in-demand interviewee this week, talking about his groundbreaking Netflix docuseries, Trigger Warning.
