Madisen Ward and the Mama Bear perform on Letterman on Wednesday night

Things seem to be moving quickly now for Independence duo Madisen Ward and the Mama Bear. Following the news in October that the band had been signed to Glassnote Records, it was announced that Madisen Ward and the Mama Bear would also be playing the 2015 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival and were recording a debut full-length. And on Wednesday night, the mother-son twosome will make their first national television performance on The Late Show with David Letterman.
