Okkervil River

Okkervil River

A Dream in the Dark is a collection of twelve digital live albums spanning two decades – from Okkervil River’s earliest shows up to the present day. It presents a comprehensive history of the band through the lens of concerts instead of studio albums, and it draws from a massive archive of recordings catalogued by Will Sheff and by fans throughout the years. Each installment of the series comes with detailed liner notes, including essays, journal entries, interviews with band-members past and present, and copious archival photographs. The liner notes are presented in both written and podcast-style audio format. Subscription to one of the two tiers of A Dream in the Dark also gives you access to additional rewards detailed below.

HOW IT WORKS:

Immediately after subscribing to A Dream in the Dark you’ll be able to download the first album in the series from this site. After that, you’ll receive an email once a month for 12 months indicating when there is a new album ready to download. You can return to the Subscriber’s Area of the site at any time to download previous albums or to read an online version of the liner notes, which will also be included with your album download.

There are two subscription tiers for A Dream in the Dark:

The Silver Ship Subscription includes the following physical rewards:

  • Limited edition t-shirt of William Schaff’s A Dream in the Dark cover design.
  • Three William Schaff “Illuminated Lyric” prints for the songs “Red,” “Lost Coastlines,” and “Our Life is Not a Movie or Maybe.”
  • Embroidered subscriber patch of earliest Okkervil River logo design, created in 1998

The Golden Dreams Subscription includes the t-shirt and lyric prints & patch PLUS:

  • Exclusive pre-sale access to summer 2019 Request & Rarities shows WITH a guaranteed song request.
  • The lyrics to any Okkervil River song of your choice, hand-written, personalized, and mailed to you by Will Sheff.

Physical rewards will start shipping in the 2nd month of subscription and song selection for handwritten liner notes are submitted during checkout process.

Please note: These albums are NOT available on public streaming services.
