Bright Eyes share new track 'Rainbow Overpass' from upcoming album 'Five Dice, All Threes'
It follows the release of 'Bells & Whistles' in June.
Bright Eyes have unveiled 'Rainbow Overpass', the latest single from their upcoming tenth studio album 'Five Dice, All Threes', set for release on 20th September via Dead Oceans.
The new track features Alex Orange Drink of The So So Glos and follows the release of 'Bells & Whistles' in June.
Conor Oberst explains: "Alex and I wrote a lot of the songs together, but 'Rainbow Overpass' is the only one he gets [to sing] a verse. He's kinda like my hype man, getting a little Beastie Boys on the shit! They grew up on punk rock and the Beasties, so there are a lot of little bursts of other voices. I like that. It creates energy. Sometimes music can feel flat until you get into a live situation, when there's adrenaline and raw energy. Instead of working in reverse, where that happens as we tour, I was trying to get some of that energy onto the record."
