In January 2011, when TV on the Radio performed "Blues From Down Here" live on the David Letterman show, they were riding the wave of their critically acclaimed album "Dear Science," which had been released in September 2008. This album marked a pivotal moment in their career, featuring a blend of rock, funk, and electronic influences that expanded their sound and earned them widespread recognition. By the time of this live performance, the band was enjoying the momentum and recognition from their previous work while also preparing to release "Nine Types of Light" later in April 2011. This live appearance showcased their dynamic stage presence and solidified their reputation as an innovative force in the indie rock scene. Notably, the band's eclectic influences and unique sound helped them build a diverse fanbase, contributing to their lasting impact in the music world.
