It’s a long way from the dark clubs from which Austin-based Ghostland Observatory started to the bright lights of Rockefeller Center in New York City. That’s the journey that will culminate with Ghostland’s appearance on Late Night with Conan O’Brien next Tuesday.

Today, I had lunch with Aaron Behrens, who told me the band is “extremely pumped” to get the opportunity to share their music with an even larger audience. With two records under their belt and a growing fanbase that extends from Seattle and London and beyond, Ghostland, whose ACL Fest set drew rave reviews from critics, is excited to release their latest album early in 2008, many tracks of which the band is now playing in its myriad live shows across the country.

The gig on O’Brien’s show will be Ghostland’s first national television appearance, although the band has already done a taping for “Austin City Limits”, which will be released on DVD in the coming months and air in December. You can expect to hear the duo’s radio/internet hit “Sad, Sad City” on Tuesday night.

Ghostland Observatory is scheduled to appear Oct. 16 on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien.” The show airs at 11:35 p.m. on NBC.
