Bright Eyes have announced a new EP.
The eight-track 'Kids Table' will arrive through Dead Oceans on September 26, following up last year's album, 'Five Dice, All Threes'.
Alongside the announcement, the Omaha trio have shared a new single, Dyslexic Palindrome, a slow-burning, country-leaning track featuring ethereal vocal harmonies from Alynda Segarra of Hurray For The Riff Raff, who toured with Bright Eyes earlier this year. Frontman Conor Oberst said:
"Alynda Segarra is one of the most soulful people I have ever encountered. Everything that passes through them is haunted by the weary ghost of American music past. I have had the good fortune of recording and performing with them on many occasions and I am always blown away by Alynda’s ability to channel what is both intangible and universal. Seemingly walking along in a second line of skeletons. Blowing on a valiant horn. I know it sounds crazy but, yet, there Alynda is. Always so very present but with one foot on the other side."
The EP will also include Bright Eyes' earlier single 1st World Blues, a ska offering released in July.
Bright Eyes are currently touring North America's West Coast, before shows in Japan and Singapore in November and December. Tickets are on sale now.
