Here’s something I know you kids will like - two brand spanking-new tracks off the forthcoming album (August 5th) from Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band! Recorded in Tepoztlán, Mexico last winter, “Danny Callahan” and (the awesomely titled) “Souled Out!!!” are the first tracks to emerge off of Conor’s first solo album in thirteen years. Also, it appears that the Mystic Valley Band is going to be touring this album all over the globe (including stops here in the states). So, I guess it’s safe to say that the Mystic Valley Mystery is almost a closed-case. What do you think of the results?
