Rarities & Requests, 2019 (a la carte)

$10.00
Rarities & Requests, 2019 (MP3).zip

In 2019 Okkervil River decided to reprise the "Rarities & Requests" touring format that had been so creatively rewarding some years earlier, hitting small clubs in a stripped-down trio format to play any & every request fans had thrown their way. Whereas the inaugural "Rarities & Requests" tour had been mostly acoustic, this time the lineup was shifted and expanded to encompass live drums and drum loops, electric bass, synthesizers and multiple samplers, and a drum machine. Joining the the tour to open the shows, band member Sarah K. Pedinotti frequently turned the trio into a quartet to add harmonies or to play drums or (at a memorable show in Washington, D.C.) prepared piano. The band performed over 70 unique songs over the course of this short run and "Rarities & Requests, 2019" captures some of the most fascinating moments. This is Okkervil River at their most expansive & improvisational, winging their way through some beloved deep cuts and finding surprises around each corner. Liner notes for this release are approached a bit differently as Will takes fan questions about the "A Dream in the Dark" series as a whole.
