A new single just debuted from Bright Eyes, the upbeat "Bells and Whistles," which is the lead single form a forthcoming new record to be titled Five Dice, All Threes, out Sept. 20 via Dead Oceans. It's the tenth studio album from the Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis, and Nate Walcott project, and also includes guest spots from Cat Power Matt Berninger (The National), and Alex Orange Drink (The So So Glos).
“This is a song about the many little details in life that can seem insignificant or frivolous or temporary at the time but eventually end up forming your destiny. And it's also kind of a whistle while you work scenario,” Oberst says of the single, via press release.
The band will be on tour in the US and Europe this year.
