Next Week in Music | Aug. 5-11 • Music on TV

Tune in, turn it up and rock out with these performers on the small screen.

Something is going on in TV land this week — most of the major late-night talk shows say they’ll have a “Special Guest TBA” on Thursday night. There’s baseless speculation it could involve a major pop star like Taylor Swift or Lady Gaga hyping a new album. I can’t see how that would work, since some of the talk shows tape in L.A. while others are in New York City. My money is on some sort of major Marvel movie announcement, with each show getting a different star. But really, your guess is as good as mine. Here’s what I do know: These musical artists will appear (unless they get bumped):
