Drummer James Wormworth made his first Late Night appearance on March 2nd 1999 joining the reconstituted Max Weinberg Seven after Max Weinberg took a sabbatical to join the Bruce Springsteen on tour.



"The Worm" (probably the worst nickname in showbiz today) has worked alongside various members of The Max Weinberg Seven for many years, appearing on the 1992 Vivino Brothers album "Chitlins Parmigiana" so he was a natural choice to substitute Max.



James Wormworth's sister is bandleader on the "Rosie O'Donnell Show". James has also worked with respected musicians like John Sebastian, Slo Leak, Michael Merritt, the Vivino Brothers, Johnnie Johnson, Al Kooper, and Hubert Sumlin, among others.
