Bright Eyes have announced a new EP titled Kids Table, which is out September 26th via Dead Oceans, and will include the previously released ska-leaning track “1st World Blues.”
Along with the announcement, the band shared a new song, “Dyslexic Palindrome,” featuring Alynda Segarra of Hurray for the Riff Raff. Listen here:
Frontman Conor Oberst had this to say about the collaboration:
“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.”
