As they are more in-line of a traditional backing band.... and could also be looked at as session players if needed. Though playing one offs for a single or double live session on Fallon might not be as comparable, you can see the evidence of them have a "sound" as it were. They have a style and signature sound IMO.

regarding straight production, in a less literal form, any collaborative production group might fall under this moniker. Neptunes (to your point) bomb squad, Dungeon Family, etc.
