The Strokes returned to The Late Show With Stephen Colbert for a performance on Thursday’s episode of the soon-to-end late night talk show. The band from New York City debuted their new single, “Falling Out Of Love,” from their upcoming studio album, Reality Awaits.
The wait for Reality Awaits, The Strokes’ first album in six years, will last until its release on June 26. Along with “Falling Out Of Love,” the nine-track album includes the lead single, “Going Shopping.”
The Strokes recently confirmed the Reality Awaits The World Tour 2026 that will see the band performing across North America, Japan and Europe throughout the year. Steve Schiltz is filling in for The Strokes guitarist Nicholas Valensi, who has sporadically missed several of the band’s recent performances.
