Video: The Ting Tings Perform "Shut Up and Let Me Go" on SNL

January 20, 2010

We were stoked to learn that the The Ting Tings were performing on Saturday Night Live this past weekend!

And while we’re still impatiently waiting for the band to put out a new record (this summer), it’s kind of awesome that these two can get away with performing two-year-old songs on national TV!

Check out a clip of frontlady Katie White and drummer Jules DeMartino playing “Shut Up and Let Me Go” off of 2008’s We Started Nothing, after being introduced by host Sigourney Weaver.

The song’s a classic by now!
