Update: Sylvan Esso announced a spring tour.
Sylvan Esso served as the musical guests on Monday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. The Grammy-nominated duo delivered a sleek “Ferris Wheel” at the program’s studios in Los Angeles.
“Ferris Wheel” was the lead single from the band comprised of multi-instrumentalist/producer Nick Sanborn and vocalist Amelia Meath‘s 2020 album, Free Love. Sanborn and Meath went it alone for their Kimmel appearance with Nick providing samples of Amelia’s backing vocals to give “Ferris Wheel” a fuller sound.

Sylvan Esso described “Ferris Wheel” as a song, “about discovering your power and awkwardly figuring out how to wield it.” Free Love is nominated for Best Dance/Electronic Music Album at the 2022 Grammy Awards.
