CD version of I'm Wide Awake It's Morning

Containing what are undeniably his finest songs to date, I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning and Digital Ash in a Digital Urn, two separate albums that were simultaneously released on January 25th, provide unequivocal proof that 24 year-old Oberst belongs to the lineage of great American songwriters.These albums are a soundly articulated slice of modern American life rolled into two very different records.

The new songs are bursting with all of the rough edges and heartfelt poetry for which Bright Eyes records have earned their acclaim, while exposing a glorious new level of depth and texture to the writing and delivery. Recorded back-to-back and scheduled to be released simultaneously, the albums work in tandem to elucidate both sides of Conor’s recent creative output.

I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning is a country-tinged mélange of Conor’s finest acoustic songs, featuring guest vocal appearances from Emmylou Harris and Jim James (My Morning Jacket), whereas Digital Ash in a Digital Urn is a more produced, band-centric album featuring cameo appearances by Nick Zinner of Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

Track List: 01. At The Bottom Of Everything (feat. Jim James) 02.We Are Nowhere And It's Now (feat. Emmylou Harris) 03. Old Soul Song (For The New World Order) (feat .Emmylou Harris) 04. Lua 05. Train Under Water 06. First Day of My Life 07. Another Travelin' Song 08. Landlocked Blues (feat. Emmylou Harris) 09. Poison Oak 10. Road To Joy
