==============

Wednesday’s “Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” features interview guests Matt Damon and David Feherty.

It features musical guest Sturgill Simpson.

The critically acclaimed, Americana Music Award-winning artist, who made his previous “Tonight Show” appearance in October 2014, takes the stage late in Wednesday’s broadcast. Simpson opted not to explicitly reveal his song choice ahead of the episode, instead only confirming it would be a song from his “A Sailor’s Guide To Earth.”

In addition to Simpson’s performance and interviews with the aforementioned guests, Wednesday’s “Tonight Show” features a game of “Box Of Lies” between Matt Damon and host Jimmy Fallon.

The broadcast is scheduled to begin at 11:35PM ET/10:35PM CT, but it may be delayed by late-running DNC coverage.
