Broken Social Scene broke the extended hiatus that the band has been on in order to help celebrate its record label's (Arts & Crafts) 10th anniversary. Last night the influential Canadian band performed two of their hits on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" and were even joined by longtime member Feist who has since gone on to more fame and acclaim.
