Download the new Bright Eyes track, "Shell Games"

by Ciaran Thompson

When he announced earlier this year that Bright Eyes would be releasing a new album on February 15 called The People’s Key, lead vocalist Conor Oberst revealed it would be a departure sound-wise from their last album, 2007’s Cassadaga. Now we have proof of that with the first track off the new album entitled “Shell Games”, which is available to listen to below or download for free over at Saddle-Creek. The track is also available to purchase through iTunes and is accompanied by the b-side “Singularity”.

An upcoming North American tour has been planned with Oberst and his band playing one Canadian date at the Sound Academy in Toronto on March 13.
