Dave Matthews performed three songs during an appearance on CBS' The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Tuesday, two of which have never been released.

The televised broadcast featured a rendition of "Don't Drink the Water," a track off the 1998 Dave Matthews Band album Before These Crowded Streets. Matthews then stuck around for two web-exclusive performances of unreleased songs called "Making It Great" and "Peace on Earth."

Matthews also sat down for an interview with Colbert during the show.

You can catch Matthews live on DMB's upcoming U.S. tour, launching in May.
