The Dave Matthews Band are the musical guests on tonight's Saturday Night Live.

The episode will be hosted by actor Joseph Gordon Levitt, most recently the star of the movie G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, and possibly best known for his role in television's 3rd Rock from the Sun, where he starred alongside John Lithgow, Kristen Johnston and French Stewart.

It will be the fourth time the Dave Matthews Band have performed on Saturday Night Live, appearing in 1995, 1996 and 2001. Dave Matthews also appeared as a solo artist on Nov. 8, 2003.

You'd think Saturday Night Live could spell the band's name correctly by now, but no such luck - the show's homepage is billing 'Dave Mathews Band' (one T in Matthews) as tonight's musical guest.

SNL airs on NBC at 11:30 PM in most markets, and 10:30 PM Central.

Dave Matthews Band released Big Whiskey and the GrooGux King, their seventh studio album, earlier this year. The album has sold more than 926,000 albums since it's June 2 release.

Watch the band's interview with CBS Sunday Morning News below, where they discuss the death of saxophonist LeRoi Moore, almost breaking up, and their Virginia roots.
