News of the spring tour comes after Bright Eyes hit the road for the first time in over a decade this past summer, in support of their latest album, 2020’s ‘Down In The Weeds, Where The World Once Was’.
In a four-star review of album, NME‘s Andrew Trendell said ‘Down In The Weeds, Where The World Once Was’ sees the alt-folk vanguard “explore gut-wrenching heartbreak with their trademark honesty and an increased appetite for eclecticism”.
