Conor Oberst will go around the world with Bright Eyes during 2020 after restarting the band last month.

Following on from the initial reunion gigs in Japan, the US and UK are details of North American and European tours which continue through to mid-September, ending with the previously announced appearance at End Of The Road.

Bright Eyes signed to Dead Oceans upon their reformation with a new album in the works too. ”​Bright Eyes is not just a formative artist for me personally, but for countless people who work at Dead Oceans,” the label’s co-founder Phil Waldorf said.

“To get to work with a band that is part of our own origin stories in falling in love with music is the rarest of privileges. We are thrilled to be part of another great chapter in Bright Eyes enduring legacy.”
