American indie rock band Bright Eyes has signed a new record deal and added a new set of tour dates to their growing world tour.
Bright Eyes, whose members are Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis, and Nate Walcott, arrived on the scene back in 2000 with the album Fevers and Mirrors. The indie-rock trio has now reunited in time for the 20th anniversary of their debut album.
The band split back in 2011 following the release of The People’s Key. Now, the band is back together and is working on new material. They are signed to the indie label Dead Oceans and are planning on making a comeback in spring.
“Bright Eyes is not just a formative artist for me personally, but for countless people who work at Dead Oceans,” the label’s co-founder Phil Waldorf said in a statement. “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.”
