Okkervil River Runs Through It
In promotion of their new studio album “The Stand Ins,” the increasingly popular and dark-thinking indie band Okkervil River (name taken from a Russian short story) is set tour a large part of the European continent according to the Okkervil River Website. Fans in the USA have only one more chance to see them on American soil before they land in Copenhagen on 10/27. They are scheduled to play one more show tonight at the Metro in Chicago, Illinois before they gear up to take their sound elsewhere. If you’ve never heard their unique juxtaposition of pop music and often downright depressing lyrics, tonight will be your last chance for months to come.
