Ryan Bingham added to Leno’s relaunch slate
Austin songwriter Ryan Bingham’s meteoric rise shows no signs of slowing down with the news he’ll be among the A+ List stars booked for Jay Leno’s return to “The Tonight Show” on March 1.
This story doesn’t mention what day Bingham will appear, but the Vegas bookie in me says Mar. 8 or 9 seems like a good bet, since the Academy Awards take place Mar. 7 and Bingham’s (and T Bone Burnett’s) song “The Weary Kind” from the film “Crazy Heart” is a favorite to take home the trophy for best original song.
It won’t be the first time Bingham has appeared on Leno’s show - though it would clearly be his most high-profile visit. This undated clip shows a performance from Bingham’s promotional effort for his 2007 album “Mescalito.”
