NEWS: Bright Eyes return with Dates & Sign to Dead Oceans

Bright Eyes are back. After a 9 year hiatus, Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis and Nathaniel Walcott, have re-grouped to record and tour in 2020. Releasing nine albums to date, their last released a new LP, The People’s Key, in 2011 followed by a remastered box set collection of their work in 2016. But, in 2019, the trio returned to the studio to quietly begin work on new material.

Late 2019 marked their signing to Dead Oceans.  ​On adding Bright Eyes to their already formidable roster of artists, Dead Oceans co-founder Phil Waldorf says: “​Bright Eyes is not just a formative artist for me personally, but for countless people who work at Dead Oceans. To get to work with a band that is part of our own origin stories in falling in love with music is the rarest of privileges. We are thrilled to be part of another great chapter in Bright Eyes enduring legacy.”
