Fred Armisen to lead Seth Meyers 'Late Night' band

By Rickey ·

Seth Meyers has tapped fellow SNL alum Fred Armisen to lead his Late Night band.

Armisen will curate and lead the 8GBand even as he works on his show Portlandia.

This is going to be an interesting show. Fred is a good choice (though surprising) to bounce jokes off. I'm sure Stefon would have easily gotten this job if he only knew how to play guitar!

Seth tweeted the details tonight:
