Conor Oberst

To hold us over while we wait for Bright Eyes' anticipated reunion shows to happen, they got together virtually for a new Tiny Desk (Home) Concert

From Elliott Smith to Thin Lizzy, and John Prine to Lucinda Williams, here are fifteen times Bright Eyes took on songs by legendary musicians.

Phoebe Bridgers, Lorde, Mac Miller, Brian Fallon, beabadoobee, Marissa Nadler and more.

'Down in the Weeds, Where the World Once Was' is unmistakably the work of Bright Eyes, but it also sounds like nothing they'd ever done.

”What I like about The 1975 is that they’re also weirdly genre-less. They have radio-pop songs, then others sound like a punk-rock band.”

With concerts still cancelled, we recommend these classic live videos of Jets To Brazil, Jimmy Eat World, Pedro the Lion, Rilo Kiley, Rainer Maria, Sunny Day Real Estate, and more...

”How do you approach someone just so diabolical and insane?”

Down in the Weeds, Where the World Once Was is due out on August 21 via Dead Oceans and features contributions from Flea and Jon Theodore (Mars Volta, Queens of the Stone Age).

Phoebe Bridgers has released her album one day early and is encouraging you to donate to one of several organizations before listening. It features Conor Oberst, boygenius, Nick Zinner, and more, and it's a truly stunning record...

This isn't the first time Phoebe has covered her Better Oblivion Community Center bandmate's music; previously she covered one of Conor Oberst's solo tracks.
