Maya Hawke stopped by The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon this week to perform her new single, “Missing Out.”
The appearance arrives two weeks after Hawke first premiered “Missing Out” and announced her third album, Chaos Angel, out on May 31st. With her five-piece band behind her — including regular collaborator Christian Lee Hutson — Hawke and her players opt for a schoolyard look: She’s donned in a uniform, a guitarist sports a white and red football jersey, the bassist is in graduation garb, and her drummer is wearing lab goggles and looking like he’s just arrived at the NBC building from chemistry class.
Hawke gives a faithful, harmony-laden rendition of “Missing Out,” and lets her personality shine throughout — especially given the song’s personal, reflective subject matter. She even takes a minute to eat an apple during the song’s solo section. Watch Maya Hawke’s performance below.
In addition to preparing for Chaos Angel’s release in May, Hawke has a busy year ahead of her. She’ll voice a personified “Anxiety” character in the new Inside Out sequel, and appear in her dad Ethan Hawke’s new film Wildcat later this year. Hawke also guested at the annual Tibet House Benefit Concert at Carnegie Hall this week to perform two new songs, “Hang in There” and “Black Ice.” Meanwhile, as she references via her “television salary” in “Missing Out,” Hawke is currently filming the final season Stranger Things, which will premiere in 2025.
