Lift Up Your Heart

Funny how history repeats itself. In 1995, while watching a late-night talk show, I fell in "love at first note," with the sound of a quirky and adorable singer/songwriter from South Africa. Seventeen years later, having evolved synchronistically with the music, it happened to me all over again.

Last night, Dave Matthews appeared on the Jimmy Fallon show to give fans a taste of DMB's new album. Dave performed an acoustic version of a song called "Mercy," with the help of the amazing guitarist, Captain Kirk, of "The Roots."

Dave Matthews performs new song "Mercy" on Jimmy Fallon show

Last night on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Dave Matthews performed a new song called "Mercy". Jimmy posted a tweet on Monday stating that Dave would be performing a song off the new album. The late night performance was acoustic with Roots guitarist Captain Kirk. Steve Lillywhite responded to a few fans on twitter expressing that "Mercy" is "not just acoustic on the album" and "its not quiet on the ablum". This solo version of the new song is only a taste of what's to come.

Jimmy Fallon also sung a rendition of "The Walk of Shame" with a little help from Dave Matthews, while President Barack Obama joined the Roots to slow jam the news.

This has fans itching for more. There has been very little information leading up to this performance to tell what will be on the new album and when we will see it. This is clearly a start of what's to come and we can't wait to see what's in store. The 2012 Summer tour kicks off in Woodlands, TX on May 18th!
