They perform 'City Boy' and 'Greyhound' on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Finn Wolfhard from 'Stranger Things' made his musical TV debut as the frontman of his band Calpurnia this week on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live'. If you haven't already seen their videos, they call to mind that kind of 90s college rock ethos - and we can't get enough of them.

They performed original songs 'City Boy' and 'Greyhound', taking from their new EP 'Scout', last night (July 24th 2018) and they've already reached more than a hundred thousand views combined.
