Okkervil River have posted the video for Mary On a Wave to go with some acoustic tour dates in May.
The track is taken from Away, which is to be stripped back during shows in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland and Seattle.
‘Ever sat listening to the latest electro-synth supposed awesomeness of the ‘next big thing’ and wondered why bands no longer sound like Townes Van Zandt, or ‘Nebraska’/’The River’-era Bruce Springsteen anymore?’, Live4ever asked in our Away review:
“There’s just so much going on at every stage of the record. Songs are long but need to be as confining them would seem criminal. It also needs this time to achieve its point. The record has a huge breadth, incorporating so many styles and flavours very delicately.”
Acoustic tour dates:
MAY
2 – Los Angeles, CA, Bootleg Theater
3 – San Francisco, CA, The Chapel
5 – Portland, OR, Mississippi Studios
6 – Seattle, WA, The Triple Door
