June 17 (UPI) -- Steve Martin and Alison Brown performed their single "5 Days Out, 2 Days Back" with Tim O'Brien on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Monday.
Martin, 79, played the banjo with Brown, while O'Brien sang and performed on the mandolin.
The group performed in front of a country road backdrop as O'Brien sang about how the guitar had been a "northern star."
Martin wrote the song, which was released March 28.
"Martin's lyrics tell a story familiar to all touring musicians of balancing life on the road with the pull of loved ones at home," an official synopsis reads.
