James Wormworth is an American drummer and percussionist. Wormworth is a member of Jimmy Vivino and the Basic Cable Band on the TBS late night comedy program, Conan. Wormworth often filled in for Max Weinberg during the band's run as The Max Weinberg 7 on Late Night with Conan O'Brien while Weinberg toured with Bruce Springsteen.[1] Wormworth joined the band as a full time member when O'Brien became the host of The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien.
Wormworth has taken over for Max Weinberg as the band's full time drummer on O'Brien's TBS talk show Conan, as Weinberg is no longer a part of the band.
Wormworth has a strong preference toward playing the drums with his feet completely bare, as exhibited when he wore a full suit with bare feet while playing on television with the Max Weinberg 7.
He is the brother of bass guitarist Tracy Wormworth.
