The virtual appearance saw the group rounded out with an additional guitarist, while bassist Tom Petersson was seated and the only band member to wear a mask.
“Hi everyone, you may have noticed that I was sitting down during Stephen Colbert’s Late Show performance last night,” shared the rocker on social media. “I had to have open heart surgery a month ago and am under doctor’s orders to take it easy. I’m currently recuperating and slowly but surely getting stronger every day. Can’t wait to get back to see all of you again soon.”
Cheap Trick’s Late Show debut came on the eve of the release their new album, “In Another World.”
Produced by Julian Raymond, the set marks the Rockford, IL group’s 20th studio release.
“In Another World” is now available digitally as well as on standard black vinyl, CD, digitally and via streaming platforms.
