R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe performed his new solo song 'The Rest of Ever' for the first time on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on Thursday. The track comes from his long-awaited debut solo album, due out later this year. Stipe joined house band leader Louis Cato and The Great Big Joy Machine for the soulful rendition.
Michael Stipe made a rare onstage appearance on Saturday to perform two R.E.M. songs at a concert by Michael Shannon and Jason Narducy in Brooklyn. The event celebrated the 40th anniversary of R.E.M.'s album Lifes Rich Pageant. This marked the first time Stipe had sung those tracks live since 2008.
