For the forthcoming Outer South, Conor Oberst’s left the eponymous cave and woken up from his solitary nap in his best hammock to put on a pink sweater and a blindfold and make time with his Mystic Valley Band in a very brown room. The blind leading the fashionably shambled? A plea to Extreme Makeover Home Edition: El Paso? Penance for the bad mirrored shades in the above pic? You decide:
Outer South is out 5/4 in the UK via Wichita and 5/5 in the U.S. via Merge. The guys will be at Coachella.

that was quick
That’s what i love about Conor Oberst. He reminds me of the days when bands would put out an album a year. Not one every 3 years or something.
I think it’s a sweatshirt.
i hope this is better than his last two musical efforts.
Agreed. I’ll take soulful Conor over this bland country bullshit any day.
conor oberst is my fav but this art is horrendous…its kind of hilarious
nice shirt, Conor. It’s so ridiculous I feel he did that on purpose. I love him.
So is “Bright Eyes” ever coming back or has Conor been hypnotized by the mysticism of recent years for good?
can’t wait
Swoon…
