On this day 10 years ago, Future Islands made their stellar debut on Letterman.
"This was the moment that the wider world really caught on. Letterman was delighted, the performance went viral, and Future Islands suddenly became a whole lot more famous."
"I don’t remember actually performing the song.
I was so overcome with the moment that I blacked out.
It was a life-changing moment, and it took me years to see the way that it opened up my life."
