What was the name of the house band on Late Night with Seth Meyers?

The house band on Late Night with Seth Meyers is The 8G Band.

The band takes its name from Studio 8G, the New York City studio where the NBC program is produced. It performs the show’s opening and closing music, accompanies musical guests and supplies live musical transitions during the broadcast.

The group was formed for Seth Meyers’s version of the long-running Late Night franchise, which premiered in 2014. Fred Armisen served as bandleader at the beginning, while the band’s lineup and leadership developed over time as Armisen balanced the role with other television work.

The name can be confused with house bands from other late-night programs. The Roots are associated with The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, while The Max Weinberg 7 belonged to Conan O’Brien’s Late Night era. Those are different programs and different bands.
