They’ll be released by Bright Eyes on June 16th.
Bright Eyes have confirmed the details of the third instalment of their ‘Companion‘ re-release series.
2007’s Cassadaga, 2011’s The People’s Key and the Noise Floor rarities collection are a part of this edition, with additional content this time from Johanna and Klara Söderberg of First Aid Kit, Gillian Welch and Alynda Segarra of Hurray For The Riff Raff.
“We are really excited about the final installment of our companion EPs,” Conor Oberst has responded. “It’s been an interesting journey revisiting and reimagining all of these old songs. 54 songs total seems ridiculous now looking back, but I’m glad we did it.”
This new batch includes great contributions from Alynda Segarra, Johanna and Klara Söderberg and an amazing cast of other fantastic musicians that brought these songs into the present tense. I hope all of the fun and neo-nostalgia we experienced recording these comes through to the listeners.
