Conor Oberst was the musical guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live on ABC last night. He was joined by Jonathan Wilson on guitar, Nataniel Walcott on keyboard, Cully Symington on drums and Dan Home on pedal steel to perform "Zigzagging Toward the Light," off his Nonesuch debut album, Upside Down Mountain (which Wilson co-produced with Oberst), released earlier this year. You can watch the performance below.

Oberst recently announced that he will tour Australia in February and March 2015. Before then, he performs at two holiday-season benefit shows in the United States: Holiday Cheer for FUV in New York City on December 8—for which he will be joined by label mate Natalie Merchant, Jonathan Wilson, The Felice Brothers, Laura Marling, The Lone Bellow—and the KCSN Benefit in Northridge, California, on December 12. He will also perform at the Todos Santos Music Festival in Mexico in January. For details and tickets, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.
