It’s unclear if Carlile is a big fan of the Apple TV+ series, but she and Ted Lasso star Jason Sudeikis have some history: In November 2020, Carlile was among the performers at Sudeikis’ Thundergong benefit live stream, and the duo reunited in October 2021 to serve as the host/musical guest combo on Saturday Night Live.
I’ve been waiting my whole life to make this announcement!
Live from New York it’s Saturday night!!
Can you even believe we get to be on the same night as the wonderful @jasonsudeikis ? Can’t wait to hug Ted Lasso’s neck!!
See you there @nbcsnl! pic.twitter.com/xQvhojqEXF— Brandi Carlile (@brandicarlile) September 22, 2021
In June, Carlile will embark on a summer-long tour that kicks off with her Echoes Through the Canyon weekend at Washington’s the Gorge, a three-night event that will feature Joni Mitchell’s first ticketed event in over two decades.
