Yesterday Okkervil River unleashed their new song “Wake And Be Fine” upon us and we lapped it up with glee and mad anticipation for their new record I Am Very Far which lands on May 10th.
Okkervil River are currently warming up for their tour in early support of this new record and one of the first stops they’ve hit is the Rolling Stone offices where they performed their new song acoustically as well as the ultra-rare “In A Radio Song” from Black Sheep Boy. Singer Will Sheff admits that they haven’t played the song since 2005 so make sure you watch this video because it could be another six years until they play it again.
The set of videos concludes with Will Sheff talking about his influences and the buzz he got from finding out Lou Reed is a fan.
