Indie-rockers Cursive made their network debut on the David Letterman show last month and played their new single "From the Hips". Stereogum described the band's Letterman performance as "summon[ing] an air of electricity from the sparse jags and soaring climax of Mama I'm Swollen's lead single".

The band followed this by debuting their Michael Grodner-directed video for "From the Hips" on MySpace.
