Bright Eyes Tease 'Five Dice, All Threes' With New Single Rainbow Overpass, Confirm 2025 Tour
Tuesday, 06 August 2024
Written by Jon Stickler
Bright Eyes have shared another track from their upcoming album.
Driven by fuzzy power-pop guitars, the effervescent Rainbow Overpass features guest vocals from Alex Orange Drink of The So So Glos, and marks the second preview of 'Five Dice, All Threes', due out on September 20. The trio previously teased the record with the lead single, Bells And Whistles, released in June.
Commenting on the new cut, frontman Conor Oberst said:
"Alex and I wrote a lot of the songs together, but Rainbow Overpass is the only one he gets [to sing] a verse. He’s kinda like my hype man, getting a little Beastie Boys on the shit! They grew up on punk rock and the Beasties, so there are a lot of little bursts of other voices. I like that. It creates energy. Sometimes music can feel flat until you get into a live situation, when there’s adrenaline and raw energy. Instead of working in reverse, where that happens as we tour, I was trying to get some of that energy onto the record."
Alongside the new music, Bright Eyes have shared North American tour dates for 2025, running from January through to April. Check out the full list below. Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (August 9).
The Nebraska band already have a handful of dates in the diary for 2024, including shows in New York, Omaha and California, as well as slots at Chicago’s Riot Fest and the inaugural Best Friends Forever Festival in Las Vegas. They also have UK and European dates lined up in November. Tickets for those gigs are on sale now.
