Of Monsters & Men Bring Their Hit Song ‘Alligator’ to ‘Ellen’

Talk show stalwarts and Icelandic darlings Of Monsters & Men brought their “fever dream” to The Ellen DeGeneres Show Tuesday with a performance of their Number One hit, “Alligator.”

Bedecked in Björk-like jewels and glittering pants, lead singer Nanna Bryndís belted out the band’s hit in front of an undulating red background, echoing their earlier performance of that same song on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. “Alligator” comes off of 2019’s FEVER DREAM, their most recent release since 2015’s Beneath the Skin.

“The song very much speaks to the excitement and energy that we feel about being back,” the band previously said of the song in a statement. “We can’t wait to share more music and see everyone again.”

Of Monsters & Men are currently on tour with their new album.
